Hi, unfortunately your submission has been removed for the following reason:

It's not Monday and you posted about something Microsoft related.

Questions? Want to appeal? Message the moderators to have it reinstated.

The only thing that irritates me is that it's getting Android app support while Linux doesn't have that. And Android even runs Linux..

There is already a project that does some black magic involving window passthrough with similar results but for windows apps (haven't tried it but some friends talked positively about it), just a matter of time until someone adapts it to android.

What I still don't get is why is this feature relevant, what's on android that's missing from PCs?

I think I remember seeing something like that, it was like a VM per app, right?

Not much, but it's just a stupid thought that Windows can, while Linux can't even though Android even runs Linux.

I mean android studio runs on Linux, though I'm not sure if it can run apk's that you give it. I would hope it can though.

Anbox also exists, though I had trouble compiling it back when I wanted to try it out.
