Any chance to see it running? I thought of qemu, wine, yuzu: do you know any working way?

Also no Google Play games.

Wrong.

Just no ARM games on X86 without libndk translation library.

Sorry yes of course. Did you install ARM translation? Or root it? I am very curious about that.

Btw, there is now a Waydroid forum here and I am looking for Admins ;D

DRM is also working I think?

There just is no good app for keyboard control, Smart Autoclicker is nice but only supports one press at a time.

I did both as well as install the DRM component.
Root was a pain because as an Arch user I was forced to compile linux-xanmod-anbox & add a kernel parameter to get root working. Unfortunately the Chaotic-AUR didn't have a binary version of linux-xanmod-anbox & linux-xanmod-anbox-headers despite what the readme for waydroid-magisk says.

I tend to use a PS4 controller if the app supports it. It can be tricky to navigate without a touch screen that's for sure.

I wish Waydroid was more user-friendly out of the box but it's pretty new tech bringing two pretty incompatible systems together without the help of Google engineers so I can't fault it for that.
