I tried Waydroid on Arch and its amazing. It runs Android apps flawlessly. And with a touchscreen device, I feel like I have an Android tablet running inside my Linux machine.

But I still don't know what to use it for...

What apps do you use with Waydroid? What use cases do you have for it?

This is the way 😉 although the Minecraft launcher is pretty good these days running under Waydroid is considerably less hacky as it's not having to thunk between android and Linux userspace.

I've found the official launcher to be terrible, laggy, unstable, and poorly designed even on windows. I don't think it can even launch bedrock anyway, I need to use the unofficial *nix launcher and the android APK to play on a realm.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
