Anbox is old stuff. Waydroid is improving with each release (which happened several times in the last few months), and it's great overall, but tricky to set up properly: kernel modules, mutter (if your desktop is under X), and the Google activation step for your new device; then houdini and possibly other stuff (eg. to fake wifi if using ethernet, Magisk...). Once you do that, it's almost as native and it usually supports your GPU.



With the latest Ubuntu release, it just works with `apt install waydroid`. Got it up and running in literally 3 minutes and with a few mindless clicks.


Doh. What an improvement... I was literally afraid of reinstalling it. Great!
