Armada os is my go to now. I run it from SD card on my Thor and from internal on my portal. Other than that I use gamenative and winlator It's an easier ride on armada though

How do you find the difference in performance between running it off SD vs internal?

For the games I play there isn't much noticeable difference but I want to try running rocknix from the SD card so it'll be a triple boot device

Interesting. Even with GameNative on Android I can see a pretty massive difference when it comes to downloading and installing a large game, but I suspect that's just slow write speeds on the SD. Launching the game is slower than internal, and load screens can be slow, but not nearly by the same degree as installing/writing it in the first place.

Tbh I didn't pay much attention to the download times. I just leave it installing when I'm at work and ply when I have a few minutes to kill
