I know about that, but that was mostly to run android apps on windows. I never tried it but I assumed most things related to Google Play Services didn't work in it. In any case I was just reminiscing about Microsoft not properly pushing "Microsoft Android" phones free of google services. > why is there no easy way to run android on gnu linux desktops? Probably because nobody bothered to do it and I imagine a lot of existing linux desktop software would have problems running in android. Like Android has its own libc and stuff. I am not knowledgeable enough though to be sure of these claims.
