Interesting, I think I’ll try it in waydroid
You can already do that with termux-proot and termux-x11
HW Accel?
Yes, you can make it work on snapdragon devices (dont know about Exeynos or other)
This interests me greatly. I would like to try this on a device, but I don't have an extra I can spare to do so.
Put it on your phone. It runs inside a container, so on top of stock android. All your normal phone stuff is still there and running. Worth noting android has good support for mouse and keyboard.
Edit: user below pointed out that this does not appear to be an app, which kinda makes it a weird choice? Seems like there are still better solutions like Userland, Andronix, and LinuxDeploy

In this specific github entry it mentions flashing, and with my setup, I would prefer not to flash something onto my phone without some sort of backup.
Unless there is a userland app I can install that I seem to be missing.
I bought a OnePlus 6 rn, apparently one of the devices where you can put Debian on it.
This pretty much opens the door for Proton on mobile I guess?
No, sadly, unless you have an amd64 phone, which would honestly be weird at this point.
-guy who spent to long trying to get Linux Dwarf Fortress running on an ARM tablet not a month ago.
That's why I prefer to distribute programs as .wasm files. Efficiently run code on any hardware.
It would be great if publishers started doing this, however, this way you cannot sell Skyrim or/and gta5 *th time in a row
you could start with FOSS software.
Emulation time it is!
Box64 might be worth checking out. I didn't get much out of it but your mileage may vary.
It's likely you could use winlator to play the windows version of the game (I know, not quite the same, although it does run wine via a linux container lmao)
You can, it's crashy.
Winlator is kind of a bitch to configure to get things running smoothly. I spent wayyyyyyy too much time trying to get new vegas to run at 60fps on my fold 4 just because I wanted to see if I could. I got close but now it crashes every minute or so. Moved my save over to my pc lmao. If you'd like, you can dm me and I can try to help you out with getting it to run. I ended up joining several discord servers to try to learn what the options do. It sucked but I think i have a somewhat basic understanding of how things function now.
Appreciate the offer. I managed to get it running full screen on a sever I can vnc into, just like steam link except not slow.
Note: SL may not be slow, but the server it's on aty place is a potato. Doing DF and steam (goddamnit I'd love to kill steam webhelper) and steam link will make you crazy.
Proton on mobiles already exists Check out Box64Droid
Oh thats cool. Theres a similar one that lets you run dos.
hey i heard you like linux so here's linux running inside of linux
