There is an experimental version floating around that does run on linux through the very new android translation layer. Very buggy though currently. Its in flathub.
Ya, it works! But it is very much like a phone interface on the computer. Maybe not perfect but it exists.
That's awesome. Linux should absolutely be pushing for Android app compatibility in much the same way macOS does with iOS/iPadOS apps.
And by pushing, I mean it should be an optional project people could install if they want, not forced on everyone like a commercial OS feature. I just mean it should be a thing.
I think Waydroid fits the bill of what you're describing.
