I just finished updating Ubuntu 22.04 to 24.04 on a couple of my computers today. It was a major PIA. Switching from one OS to another is like changing lanes on the freeway during a peak commuting time. Pretty much whatever you do does not really help. I use different setups for various situations and hardware. I don’t really consider one better than another... they all have their own purposes, advantages and disadvantages. I appreciate all of them and the effort that went into them.

I am “typing” this out on a “Windows 11 Pro To Go” installation that I use when I want to use Android Apps on a PC... The Android E-book apps and some others are a real pleasure to use on a PC. Windows 11’s subsystem for Android is superior in many ways to emulators which do basically the same thing.

Normally I use Windows 10 Pro on this computer because I have hardware and software that works better with Windows 10 drivers and I am just more familiar with it. My Windows 11 installation is much leaner so it boots up in a fraction of the time.

I must try this for the few android apps I like! How do you load these apps onto windows 11? I read that MS will be stopping this? There is a download one must install I am sure.
