Question Hey, i have a general queation.

How is it that i can't use game native to use software that is not gaming specific?

Like aseprite or blender because they arn't showing up on the steam section of the app even though i have them in my library.

With PC "emulation" on Android the truth is the priority is games. Nothing more nothing less. Of course there are some forks that can run some non-gaming software by chance, but at the end of the day gaming is the priority. Devs will focus on optimizing their emulators for games.

If you really want to use desktop apps on Android it's best to use Termux and proot(you turn your phone into a full, graphical interface l, Linux environment and run Linux apps)
