I understand your feelings @StevenR! I would rather not have waydroid also. however, what gives me some level of comfort is:
- waydroid runs degoogled LineageOS.
- the way it is implemented in L5 is such that it only has access to network connectivity. Not, filesystem, camera, microphone, etc. So, anything that runs inside of waydroid, can’t really interact with anything else on the L5 other than network access. @dos con confirm if I’m correct about the security aspects of waydroid on L5.
@irvinewade, following this thread, Anyone Successfully Run WayDroid on Librem 5? it seems waydroid is really close to being operational. Again, @dos can confirm it’s status. In terms of configuration, there is not much involved. It runs really smoothly, and has been a nice resource while I’m waiting for other aspects of the L5 to become more viable.
