We're talking about Waydroid, a method of running Android apps on Linux, not the display manager Wayland
Which requires using Wayland to function on normal linux desktops (hence the name i believe). Its not mentioned on wikipedia for some reason, but its the first thing when you go to their website. I wanted to try it a few years ago, but back then wayland just wasnt doing it for me. Might try it again soon tho.
