You can use Waydroid to run Android apps on Linux.

I'm an OpenBSD user, not a Linux user, and Waydroid isn't ported. find /usr/ports -type f -name DESCR -exec grep -li android {} + | awk -F/ '{printf "%s ", $5}' | sed 's/ $//'; echo gives me fdk-aac musikcube opencore-amr adb apktool jadx kf5 py-filebytes clearsans roboto-fonts chiaki libgdx libgdx kdeconnect-kde ntfs-3g selfoss, none of which seem to be an android emulator.

Either way, using a youtube client through an android emulator seems silly, especially when there are native clients like minitube and pipe-viewer that work on any platform.

It’s not run through a specific port, but through binderfs, a filesystem which indeed seems to be not ported to BSD.
