ARM computers
what is the current state of GNU/Linux on ARM-based machines? I know a lot of distros offer an ARM build, but ARM fragmentation and software availability seem to still be a dealbreaker for personal use, so that might be the reason why I’ve only heard of ARM server focused devices
I wouldn’t say personal use is a deal breaker. Plenty of distros like archlinuxarm and debian have pretty decent binary package repos in part thanks to raspberry pi and other prevalent arm v7 and v8 platforms. Otherwise you can compile things yourself.
Fex is also looking to be a game changer for arm - x86/x64 emulation in userspace on arm64 v8+. No need to care too much if there isn’t an arm binary available - just run the x86 one through fex.
