They do mention "Waydroid uses Linux namespaces (user, pid, uts, net, mount, ipc) to run a full…" [see main page] when in fact they simply use LXD, which uses all these features. Besides, it is a project dependency, which is not mentioned anywhere. Edit: clarity.
LXC, not LXD.
Both are required to run Anbox and Waydroid so you have to switch to another kernel or build one yourself.

Those are just questions. I think the OP would accept the answers "no".
I mean sure he would accept the answer "no", but why even ask the questions in the first place? That is like going to a used car lot, looking at a car with a tag price of 1000 dollars and asking is it electric, does it have doors that open like wings, does it have level 2 autonomous etc. Sure, you will take no for an answer, but why you be even asking that?
Asking about the existence of such things is not a suggestion that they must be provided at that price. It's simply the baseline criteria for some people to want to use it.

To me those questions are more like; Does it have wheels, do the wheels have tyres, does it have brakes, is it road legal? Asking about the existence of such things is not a suggestion that they must be provided at that price. It's simply the baseline criteria for some people to want to use it.
Considering the availability of the demanded product at the respective price points, I think that my analogy is much more accurate than yours.

Sure, it is up to you to choose what product you want. But you should still have some awareness about the price of that product in the market. If someone offers a car for 5$ on ebay, I am going to assume it is a toy, not the real thing.
Has anyone had success getting any of these containers to work with a camera? Recently, my bank discontinued their website based deposit system for checks in favor of their app. I'm reluctant to keep an app with full access to my account on my phone, so a container system like Waydroid or Anbox would be great if I could just emulate the app when I need it. Has anyone else run into this issue and, if so, how have you…

If you think that Pinephone is slow, try a less cluttered OS ( https://sxmo.org ), or consider Librem 5 instead.
...or wait for the fxtec to ship. If I'm going to have a command line on my phone, I want a keyboard.
Do you know if the fxtec will offer the same? For a tinkerable Linux phone where you genuinely go distro-hopping, that's truly a game-changer.

The fxtec looks neat in theory, but one thing I love on my PinePhone is its ability to just boot any OS on any SD-card you insert. Do you know if the fxtec will offer the same? For a tinkerable Linux phone where you genuinely go distro-hopping, that's truly a game-changer.

It sort of looks like these guys said hey if anbox folks aren’t going to update their android version, let’s fork it and do our own thing? There are some random anbox files in the repo for waydroid.
Waydroid was formerly known as anbox-halium; I believe it was a rewrite of Anbox to use system capabilities more or something, but I’m fuzzy on the details. (As to what it’s now known as, I’m not actually certain: in most places it’s spelled Waydroid, but there are a number of places where it’s spelled WayDroid instead. Waaaaah! I can’t cope!)

The whole point of the OP's questions is that they didn't want to assume anything! I don't see the harm in asking these types of questions, even if the most likely answer to each of them is "no".

Exactly, AFAIK you can't watch netflix on your ARM SBC.
You can, all you need to do is to extract the widevine binary from a ChromeOS arm build and put them on your Pi/ARM board. Admittedly, it's a bit cumbersome to do this, but it works very well. I've been watching Netflix on my Raspberry Pi 4 for over a year using it. Also, according to this guy [0] you now seem to be able to just install libwidevine in Raspberry OS. I haven't tested this yet though. [0]: https://lemar…
