You probably mean WSA, Windows Subsystem for Android, only available on Windows 11… for another month. At which point support for it will be dropped[0]. It's a bit sad 'cause I, myself, do use it for a few things. Also, by default it required installing the Amazon Appstore, which I don't think is available for download anymore.

If there's any "disabled by GitHub staff" going on, it's likely due to DMCA nonsense, not due to forks having their GitHub Actions billed against the upstream repo. Related to that, I'm surprised to see the submitted repo distribute icu.dll and winhttp.dll, versus telling interested parties to ext
