F-droid maybe we'll find a new good home then?

F-droid for Waydroid enabled Linux phones?

small userbase
high resource usage
still dependant on Google

F-droid for AOSP Android

still dependant on Google

Honestly, I prefer flatpaks with all the drawbacks, give me 100% freedom while providing Android like comfort... Like the new xdg permissions portal.

If the price is no good maps or banking apps, I'll gladly pay it. I just wish the graphene team worked on linux instead.

Waydroid isn't an "emulator" or a fully independent thing like Wine. It runs a full Android system in a container. It's no more or less dependent on Google than AOSP itself is.
