Here’s the Twitter thread discussing this

Basically, some different apps were linked to the official steamVR app. These apps are hidden, but the data miner was able to grab some assets from them that included some custom art for Waydroid, which is a Linux program that lets you run Android apps on Linux.

Additionally, I’ve seen comments saying that some valve devs have been making pull requests for the Waydroid github, but I don’t actually have a proper source for that.

      There are lots of high end android games that this would make available, and we could also benefit from apps like Netflix/etc.

        On Bazzite I believe people use Firefox installed as Android app, so they can simply switch to it for game guides etc, while playing a game, in GameScope/Big Screen/GameMode™

        I’m too lazy to test, because I just run it as my daily driver on my Desktop.

          But you can do the same with a normal desktop Firefox, none of those things prevent you from switching windows to check things. There must be some other reason why it’s run as an Android app.
