No, Waydroid merely used other projects wrapped in some crappy Python scripts & had a multitude of issues. If it is anything like Waydroid then I'll lose respect for Valve.

    We know that it started as a fork of Waydroid

    But:

    Update: While Lepton was based from Waydroid at the beginning

    It seems to be a lot more custom now. To the point where it’s being described as “not really Waydroid anymore” from those who are working on it

    That is all really useful info to have. Google Play Games for Windows uses their own crosvm sandbox, which has a couple---but not many---hack-a-rounds to run regular apps & for Houdini (ARM translation). And Android source code makes multiple mentions of a container-based Android sandbox. What sucks is that Microsoft discontinued WSA & that Google won't release a modern standard desktop-based Android layer because it is so "security-concious" (aka fragile) that they are worried about users abusing the APIs it exposes.
