Shame it’s android only

Not really. Android has been doing great in terms of emulation.

Why? You can install Dajisho and it’s great.

I just prefer an open source Linux/community supported OS so my handheld won’t be left to die like my old Nvidia Shield Portable.

I’m not dissing Retroid devices but the Android only thing puts me off buying one

Yeah that makes sense. On the other hand I see drivers are more optimized for android. I have an orange Pi Zero 2 that does both android and Armbian, the android versions are much more efficient than the Linux ones.
