This is very exciting. Here is the APK I downloaded. And the associated discussion.

It even already seems to support stylus input which is very exciting seeing as there has been talk of porting RNote to Android.

Somebody is gonna put Gnome on an Android, I can feel it.

Gnome for phones already kinda exists with Phosh. I guess that wouldn't be too hard to port

For touchscreens, Gnome is great, I dunno how well it would work, but I wouldn't be sad to see someone try to make an actual fully featured Android UI replacement out of it.
