SteamDeck, emulate everything.*
- Proton technically isn’t emulation, but it’s pretty crazy that the device basically doesn’t have anything natively built for it, everything is translated emulated. It took that much effort to break Microsoft’s PC gaming monopoly.

Regardless of what the website says, waydroid isn’t an emulator by any meaningful definition.
It’s a container that runs on top of your regular linux kernel (with some very cool desktop integration features), java/kotlin applications run as natively as they’d run on your phone.

translation is kind of native though. It is almost like porting a winfows app to linux in real time, on the fly. It is pretty cool

Yeah it’s pretty cool. Sometimes the translation can even beat native performance.
