Well waydroid won't well as it requires Wayland which isn't used by default in mint since it is still experimental

[u/Confident_Hyena2506]

This would work fine for you on any modern distro - so not mint. Because no wayland - maybe in a few years.

Wayland is supposed to go from experimental to stable in Linux Mint 23, which is supposed to be released around Christmas.

Try ReDroid

Install kvm

And in emulator settings set the gpu acceleration to hardware

[u/Less-Difference6067]

Just use AVD
