> The idea that Linux is "half baked" non non-amd64 platforms is just... it's just stunning.
Evidence to support this idea, from a Red Hat developer in the area of ARM support:
His 2015 attempt:

It failed. Arm on the desktop on Linux was not usable.
A decade later, he tried again.
His 2025 attempt starts here:
https://marcin.juszkiewicz.com.pl/2025/07/07/arm-desktop-202...
It failed. Arm on the desktop on Linux was still not usable last year.
I think the proposition that it's half-baked is strong enough to at least discuss, not mock.
