Related to GH-382.
Waydroid requires Wayland to run, Cinnamon is still using X11 last time I check. You could try something like Cage. Tho I recommend using Desktop Environment that uses Wayland like KDE 6 or GNOME to avoid unexpected issue.
For someone whos is the first time googling how to run android apps on linux and finding this project, and spending time installing and configuring an downloading images, just to find out that it only runs in Wayland... yeah it is a real bummer...
Please make very explicit in your site/readme that this is WAYLAND ONLY, i've been using linux for 20+ yrs and even i didn't realize that the WAY in waydroid was for wayland. People just doesn't know it all, all the forks and successors, etc.. so please be explicit.
Kudos on all the hard work you put in this project 🖖
