F-Droid is an Android app, so that won't work natively. There are some approaches such as Waydroid and Anbox to run Android and its apps in containers, which will make some apps work to some degree. However it will be severely limited and especially on the Pro the hardware acceleration under Waydroid is currently not working due to a bug.
