Samsung Apps and Services

Has anyone else noticed that the new Linux terminal app doesn't even work on some galaxy phones?

I'm using an S24, and whenever I try the installer, it errors out, saying "unprotected virtual machines aren't supported"
I think it's rather funny that an app google designed doesn't even run, on their own OS.
From what I've heard, it might be an issue with snapdragon CPUs, or Knox. I don't know which one if at all.
 
If it's the first one:
I get that not ALL phones run snapdragon chips, but one metric I found says that over 1,000 different kinds of phones do!
 
If it's the second:
According to counterpointresearch.com, Samsung holds around 20% of the mobile phone market! (Knox being a Samsung thing...)
 
Either way, any excuse is pretty bad, as they're letting down no small crowd.
1 person had this problem.
