    As the rule of thumb with FOSS projects, it has a horrible name

    Time to rename it to one of the very creative FOSS project names

    • yet another something (YAS)
    • something is not other thing (SINOT)
    • OpenSomething, FreeSomething, LibreSomething
    • Something<framework name>
    • Periodic table
    • Somethingify (this one is new)

    Kudos to devs though. This is awesome

    Wow this is awesome! Waydroid is insecure (outdated, rootful container), slow in development and only sandboxed on Fedora.

    But that they take Newpipe… which is notoriously broken as Youtube tries to block everything…

    Other apps are

    • OSMAnd~
    • OrganicMaps
    • Grayjay
    • Jerboa, Fedilab, Pixeldroid
    • Amethyst, Voyage

    Those are really unique on Android

      it’s worth noting that no actual security problems have been presented that haven’t been dealt with, Sandboxing is available on any distro assuming the tools are made availible. Waydroid supports both apparmor and selinux, please report any security issues and tag the maintainers when doing so.

      EDIT: you do need to set apparmor into enforce mode manually though.
