Anything from Android can be forked into any number of Linux distros you want to make. So none of it is Android-specific, really. For example Android software worked on Jolla's Sailfish OS.

Sailfish has a crappy Android simulation layer. You don't really want that on the Desktop. Android and Desktop Linux are completely different platforms, except maybe for the graphics APIs (Vulkan/OpenGL).

  I'm not saying I would want that. My original point was that the person I was replying to said that they won't believe Linux gaming would ever be predominant. I'm saying it already is.

    Would you say the same about FreeBSD gaming then, given the PS4 runs FreeBSD?

      You can easily fork Android and create an OS on top of it that connects with the Android ecosystem. Can't do that with PS4 and its OS and ecosystem.
