the one thing linux really hasnt been made on par with winblows yet is the dreadful amount of options for android simulation -the most popular choice seems to be Waydroid, but its such an unneeded hassle to set up at all -genymotion is just slow -and than you have things like android x86 which entirely defeat the point of an emulator

    zen doesnt work with endeavouros at all, never loaded (tried it less than an hour ago) and you either need to use a tiling wm, or gnome/kde neither of which i would do willingly

      Zen works fine in endeavor for me last I checked, but then again I haven’t checked for a few mkneths I don’t recommend using our derivatives anyways.

      on Wayland supported compositor “works” (hyprland and wayfire seem to have some issues). I personally use waydroid via cage ontop of x11. but a lot of people use weston. Ive been meaning to test cosmic but haven’t gotten around to it.

      EDIT: I haven’t seen any other users talking about issues using zen kernel on the telegram either.

        not unusual that you claim it works for everyone but me, its neither the first nor the last time

        you are merely supporting what i said that it barely works for anything but tiling vms and some few select DEs, if you can even call wayfire that and i would very much like to avoid tilingvms at all costs, id like to use something more, well, usable

          how so? People rarely have issues outside of some janky endeavor related bugs. hyprland’s issues also effect other applications like wine,

          it works on nearly every wayland compositor I have tested, labwc, and enlightenment are included. no idea where you get the impression that it only works on tiling wms.

            I dont? Like i said, mainly tiling AND a select view graphical enviroments,

            Gnome i find entirely unusable,

            and enlightement just takes apples infuriating design choices,

            And those, for me, are quite the limited selections to make it work

            Edit: if it where to workwith a for me much more to use de like cinnamon or xfce, than id be more inclined to properly dive into it

              again, it will work on pretty much any wayland environment, if you need it to work on x11, it can work there too, just use a nested compositor like cage. I have personally verified that you can use waydroid via cage on top of xfce.

                I have no idea what you just said, nested compositor? Cage?,

                But thats myoriginal point,

                This makes it defacto unusable for people who dont want a hackerman solution, or jumping through hoops you have to research

                Imagine telling that to a total newbie now who just wants their apps on linux like nox or bluestacks do
