#I'm so tired of anime boobie phone game ads

(negativity ahead, I'm frustrated by my experiences with android emulation and wondering if anyone knows of any that aren't obnoxious and will just let me run an apk file on my laptop)
------------------------------------------------------ Having used game console emulators since the 2000s, I am baffled by how obnoxious android phone emulators seem to be. I tried one called Bluestacks and instead of just letting me launch a game from a menu like gens+ or visualboyadvance would, it had all sorts of creepy ads and crap on it, when all I wanted to do was make videos of an android game. I've run virtual machines of other operating systems and they weren't choking in ads and visual clutter, I see no reason why android emulation has to be so sleazy when emulating Windows or a Macintosh gives you a normal computer desktop. To top it off, bluestacks refuses to let me uninstall it now. Now I'm trying one called "noxplayer" which was claimed to simple and have "no sponsored ads". First time running it, a creepy anime boobie girl ad is the first thing I see. Then I get to the main screen and it's full of crap just like bluestacks was. It feels like every android emulator I find was made by some shitty corporation trying to sell me crappy phone games full of micro-transactions and 12 year old anime prostitutes. I hope somewhere there is one made by an actual normal human that will just give me a clean blank screen where I can run a game from.
