Windows 11 delenda est. Also inb4 “don’t”.

I feel like bluestacks used to be better but it gives off weird scuffed fremium windows software stink now. What’s the best way to run Android apps on an x86-64 computer?

You definitely dont need a new os or distro.

I dont know endevour specifically, but xfce and kde look like they fully support wayland.

Looks to be as simple as installing plasma-wayland-session then log out and you should have an option in your login manager to swap over to the wayland version of plasma. Xfce should be similar. If its fucked, just log back out and log in with xorg and go about your business.

Dunno, just trying to help

Oh yeah I did that once, it broke my OS, I recall that. Somewhere at the login manager.

Thanks anyway, at least I know the answer is the same as two years ago
