One theory I heard was that it was a preemptive measure incase they’re forced to sell off (or split off or whatever) chrome due to potential antitrust issues they’re facing. This would then have some really fucky downstream effects regarding ChromeOS. Or maybe this is something to try to avoid the antitrust issue in the first place? I don’t really know and this is all second hand speculation.
This would be awesome… If there was a single Android app that I’d want to use on my desktop.
This is why I’m baffled by Google’s plan to merge Android and Chrome Desktop. Why would anyone want that?
… it doesn’t have to be a desktop, eg you might want to install a banking app on your fridge.
Running android apps on Linux would be rad for the use case of a Linux phone running KDE plasma mobile or such
