Waiting? Waydroid is several years old at this point, and you've always been able to run Android in a VM via either Google's official device emulator in the SDK or just running https://www.android-x86.org/ et al. in whatever hypervisor you prefer.

Android-x86 is dead. The last commits are from years ago.

Waydroid is slightly more alive, but only barely. And it itself is a fork of now defunct Anbox.

Sorry, I should have rephrased that:

I'm still waiting for Linux to offer a good version of that. I currently use waydroid, and it's barely functional.
