What emulator do you use for GBA games? mGBA is a appimage if you download it from Emudeck but the flathub version isn't good in gaming mode? So what would you recommend instead?

Can't you install Retroarch with emudeck and use that frontend to play GBA instead?

I just use whatever emudeck has by default, I don't worry about stuff like packaging formats

I don't like Retroarch or rather I don't want to l learn it since it's a bit complicated

For everything old school I use retroarch, I basically only play up to ps2 anyway, that way I get my playtimes added up on retroarch if that's something you care about
