I don't know, I'm on Windows 10, was thinking of bluestacks and LDplayer that I use to play some gachas on PC.

Oh that makes sense. I thought you were on Linux, and wondering why you want to switch to windows when waydroid is available.

I heard they now have near zero performance penalty and integrate really well with the desktop. If you really want android apps, you can probably try it out on a old computer or vm.
