From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Thinking out loud, is it possible to load the apps themselves (YouTube TV, Netflix, etc) onto Linux using an Android emulator?
Don't do Waydroid, its way too slow and buggy for what you're wanting. I'd highly suggest Genymotion and have been using it on touchscreen 2in1s for a few months without issue, even with Play Store
I am pretty sure what you're looking for is called Waydroid.
