Do such "proper Linux" devices run Android apps?

I'm running Android app of my bank on my Librem 5 via Anbox. It's rough, but it works for me - YMMV.

Takes some time to boot Android in the container, app compatibility is hit-or-miss, Android apps can't really access the hardware (cameras, sensors etc.), you need to take care to not keep the container running in the background so it doesn't needlessly eat battery up, stuff like that.

You can set up Anbox on your PC and see how that works. It's the same thing on the phone.
