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.

At what point did it not work for you? I just got it running on Fedora 40 following their wiki.
on doing
waydroid app install myapk.apkIT says already running on doing
sudo waydroid container startI got it into android "desktopt" previously, but now after rebooting and trying to install an apk it seems to no longer be opening at all. Sorry :/
Edit: I just uninstalled and reinstalled via the software Center and now it works and I could install F-Droid.
don't run
sudothat breaks thingsFollowed their wiki
ah my bad, I misread, I thought you had tried
sudo waydroid app install.Failed to get service waydroidplatformusually happens when something fails when communciating to the container, this usually means the container is partially loaded so you will need to stop it and start again, you may even need to do a full reboot
