I wanna give muos and base os/spruceos a go too. I'm having some WiFi issues with Knulli but no big deal tbh.

SpruceOS has multiple ways to xfer files that way, which rocks. Because I'd really like to minimize the shoving around of a new microsd card

I suck at taking pictures of screens, but last night I got my first Chinese emulation device of choice: the TrimUI Smart Pro S. I've been so excited to set everything up, which has been easy with SpruceOS.
