       @nerdtronics @retroedgetech the first thing they will be disappointed with that not all software works. well there is a way of course but its not straight forward.

       @nerdtronics @retroedgetech the first thing they will be disappointed with that not all software works as its not binary compatible with x86_64 CPUs... Well there is a way of course but its not straight forward.

       @nerdtronics @retroedgetech But then Windows on ARM even sucks more like the WoR project.. Yes it exists and it sucks and even less applications are available. Like in case of Linux on ARM 70-80% of the apps are available in case for Windows on Arm its like 10-20% of the applications available. If you are lucky enough to have drivers for your SBC...https://www.worproject.com/

       @nerdtronics @retroedgetech Another thing Full OpenGL is not available on Linux on ARM... Most SBCs use OpenGL ES and now have started supporting Vulkan..

       @nerdtronics @retroedgetech Wine will also not work unless some type of a compatibility layer which emulates x86_64... That exist like Box86 and Box64 projects and Qemu but not straight forward to use. Projects like Virtualbox will also not work at all.

       @nerdtronics @retroedgetech If you want shit like DRM, proprietary software and proprietary games on your ARM SBC then go for Android.. If you are a tinkering like of person and want FOSS software then go for Linux and the BSDs... Chrome OS Flex will work but its useless since no Android support available. Its just basically just a browser with some extra steps.

       @nerdtronics @retroedgetech I watch Netflix on my raspberry pi 4.. I am using Android 13 AOSP.. I have not even bothered using Netflix on Rasbian.. It does not work well on 64-bit Rasbian you had to install 32-bit chromium.. Also I have lowest subscription for mobile and tablet so there is that as well.

       The traffic on Fediverse has doubled and tripled ever since Elon Musk took over Twitter. According to this stats the active on users on Fediverse today are way over million users.

       @james @rob at least there is still a technical barrier and not all normies understand how Mastodon and Fediverse works.

       I really hope normie Pakistanis (my countrymen) and normie Indians don't discover Mastadon and spoil all the fun with their stupid political propaganda and spam they do all day along... I came here as a refugees from them.. Respect for those Pakistanis and Indians who have a higher IQ.
