Does anyone know if there is a way to run Android apps on GNU/Linux right now? If so, would the librem be able to run that?

  It's possible with anbox, but it requires building the kernel with a non-standard config to enable the Binder protocol. Other than that, it works great though! Take a look: https://anbox.io/ https://anbox.io/

    They did actually include this as a stretch goal, bit it was something silly like a 6 times multiple of the funding point. Would something like this be difficult to adapt to different devices?

      Making it work is pretty easy. Got some friends who got it to work on a GNU/Linux running on the Nintendo Switch. The trouble is to properly integrate it into your device. You'd want android apps to access your contacts, things like that. Those are certainly complicated to setup.
