The GitHub page for the project

So basically it's a mix of translation layers (such as wine) to run windows app on Android. I saw an article on it and I thought I'd share. It looks pretty cool, although I'm not exactly sure what the use case for this would be. It does looks like their are some touch controls so that's pretty cool. All things considered do you thing you'd be willing to install and download full PC games to play on your phone?

This is cool, but there appears to be no issues tab in GitHub which is a bit of a red flag.

Maybe the program is completely flawless and has no bugs?

There's also no code, just a link to build binary releases

Yeah I would usually agree, but I mean it would make sense as this project is extremely new (came out like 6 days ago) so it probably doesn't have that many users yet.

It's not that there are no issues yet, the issue Page is disabled. They don't want people to rain on their parade

But those few users are usually the most knowledgable ones and can report bugs properly.

Maybe got too many comments from inexperienced users that are trying to run AAA games at the first try after seeing a doctored YouTube video

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

That's very true. I mean it is weird that there's not a Single problem on GitHub.
