Honestly might be a bit of a "shill" moment, Grabbing windows 2 in 1 and flashing bliss to it. Currently have a chuwi hi10x which can boot into Bliss and it's nice.
this works well? Wow, I was thinking about doing the same but thought : "Nah its probably gonna be a pure jank and not run that well"
Do you know, does this work with any Windows 2 in 1 machine or only specific ones?
I wont say there is no jank, there is certainly a degree of it, particularly around arm apps due to needing libhoudini or libndk for arm translation (some games, not all with pick these up as "emulators" and block you or simply not work on a couple games) but generally most arm apps work fine. if you are living with a fully x86 ecosystem like myself, I have zero complaints, everything works fine and dandy. that I myself have tested. but ofc, bugs do exist and we try to help out as much as we can on the bliss telegram or matrix as it is an actively developed project.
It only really works well with 2 in 1 machines that have decentish linux support. there are specific builds for some surface devices. however if your device like mine has decent linux support, it's pretty much a plug and play solution. Bliss uses a the android common kernel which has very little modifications to upstream kernel so typically support for hardware is simply dependant on how new the kernel is.
Bliss also relies on mesa for graphics, so intel and AMD have great support, and Nvidia is quite lack luster, but this may change with the new foss nvidia driver stuff.
Ok, thats cool to hear I will give this a shot at some point. I have an old Lenovo 2 in 1 Ultrabook collecting dust!
Also what do you mean with "living a full x86 ecosystem"? As far as I know most regular Apps (not games) offer x86 Versions of the App.
Exactly that. While most apps do offer X86 versions, there are some that don't. Every now and then you will come across an app or two that doesn't.
Ah, thanks
