Think you're talking past each other: [thing] delenda est is common parlance here on Hexbear as a general term of disparagement (comes from Carthago delenda est), so by putting that in the post OP was indicating she didn't want any solutions that require Windows 11.
That being said, apparently there are ways to get WSA to work on Windows 10: see WSAPatch and the script mentioned here which purports to automate a lot of the WSAPatch steps. I can't vouch for them at all, so do your due diligence and all that before proceeding.
edit: also apparently Microsoft is discontinuing support for WSA in six months. Thanks, Microsoft, very cool!
WSApatch sounds absolutely awesome, thanks a load. I would like to use Android apps most on my W10 convertible laptop, so this is perfect ✨
Op could have just said what OS they actually have. Which is kinda the most important thing.
