the one thing linux really hasnt been made on par with winblows yet is the dreadful amount of options for android simulation -the most popular choice seems to be Waydroid, but its such an unneeded hassle to set up at all -genymotion is just slow -and than you have things like android x86 which entirely defeat the point of an emulator

    and genymotion barely lets you install anything due to it using the wrong architecture

      The emulator with android studio might be useful, but I dunno how helpful it is for your use cases. Does require a bit of overkill to setup. I think qemu can also be used, but also probably not nice to setup. (and not sure about the architecture issue).

      A few year ago there used to be a chrome extension for running Android apps, no idea if it works for Linux or even if it still works :/
