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

    installing some random kernel that has the modules waydroid needs watching what gpu you have, which changes the instructions a little and even than its pure luck if waydroid even manages to use these binders

    id call that a hassle

        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

            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

                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

                    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
