Is GrapheneOS a good enough alternative?

I am very interested in switching to that when their phone comes out… But I wish pure Linux were viable.

We basically need an android compatibility layer before that can happen.
Valve's plan has them scared.

What is Lepton? What is FEX? What does the future hold for PC gaming and can we sus out Valve's real ambition with these projects?

Iirc, ValvE was working on one for the Steam Frame so all the Android VR games will run natively on SteamOS.

Iirc lepton basically just runs Waydroid/lineage under the hood so its still android

I’m not too familiar with the project, but I thought I heard talk about it being a compat. layer instead of a VM. Idk though, I might be entirely wrong lol.

Its just full Android.

90% of Android isn’t Linux it’s, well, Android.

Valve's version of Android on Linux (based on Waydroid) is now called Lepton

Lepton appears to be the new official name for Valve's version of Waydroid (Android in a Linux container).

Never mind then lol. Might at least be more optimized like they did with Wine/Proton.
