So I make memes. I mean, who doesn't. Many people do it on their phone but I do it on my computer. It is a pain in the a$$ to export a video to google drive then email it to myself and download it onto my phone. On an old laptop I used to have Blue Stacks, An android Emulator. I didn't really care for that laptop so I just carelessly download blue stacks. So should I download it again, should I download something else? I'm just trying to make my life easier. (Plus I do care about my current PC)

I don't make memes; in fact, I detest them for fueling our ever-developing ADHD attention spans due to misuse of the internet as a functional tool. But I digress, as this is not the time nor place for that argument. My question is why are you exporting videos to Google Drive, then emailing them to yourself to download to your phone? Just install the Google Drive app on your phone and bam! access to your Google Drive files.

 

Also, is there a reason you export them to your phone? Unless you're posting them to Instagram, I don't understand the need to export to phone since you can post to literally all other online social media platforms from PC, except Instagram.

Worked great on my Acer Aspire One back in the day. It had terminal as well so worked lovely for work. 

Huh, still RemixOS looks like a better option

Gotcha, then I totally understand the need to put these videos on your phone. (or in this case, find an emulator.) If you continue with your phone though, you can skip the email and download step by simply installing Google Drive on both your phone and computer so it can sync between the 2 devices.

So I am trying to send my friends my memes I make. I was going to use an emulator but they can't find my computer files. So then I turned to discord but my files are larger than 8 mb. SO what do I do. (Not using email. I also don't want to put files on my phone because my mom checks my phone randomly)

I use NOX
It works, it's not bloated like Bluestack, have the option to be rooted or not, is customize-able the same way an android device is, it's not limiting you in any way, it doesn't lag for no reason AND, games like Fate/Grand Order actually work with it, when it doesn't with many other Android emulators. (Also support Fortnite, PUBG, FF Brave Exodus, etc, etc etc)

 

It has ads for apps on the homescreen, but those are built-in their default launcher.

If you get a new launcher off the playstore (or sideloaded from your PC), you can get rid of all the ads and basically get a near stock android experience. 

You can even delete their launcher if you root the emulator and use whatever app that lets you delete "system apps" out, after which you can undo the root quickly and easily.
