    Hmm, interesting project from a technical perspective for sure, but I am not exactly sure why anyone would use it for anything other than testing some Linux distribution.

    I mean unlike Waydroid, which helps to run “that one Android app” you need on a mobile Linux device, there isn’t really “that one Linux app” you need to run on an Android phone.

      Maybe attaching a phone to monitor to use it as a GNU/Linux computer? Modern smartphones are powerful.

      Also I saw that many people use Termux to emulate some PC games, maybe with this tech it will be easier?

        Hmm, yes maybe running GNU/Linux on a Lapdock could be an interesting usecase for this. Didn’t think of that, thanks!
