That’s not what I meant. Microsoft has been working on Windows ARM, sure, but has anyone else been working on Windows ARM? As far as I know you can’t even get Firefox on ARM.

I suppose that they have a compatibility layer, but it’s nowhere near the performance of Rosetta 2.

Ah well, Firefox definitely has a Windows arm native build available on their website but yeah most applications certainly won’t

  Oh yeah, I stand corrected. I’m surprised I didn’t see it before.
