What Kernel are you guys using?

I have seen some people claiming that custom kernels like zen cachyos offer better battery life and performance.

Is it true ?

Waydroid isn't dependent on a specific kernel

oh wait what i thought the binder module was not included in the default kernel, huh

i swear it used to be that you had to either use dkms or use zen

It definitely used to be the case, you are right, always had to dkms the binder module.

But it seems they come baked into the kernel nowadays, according to ArchWiki.
