I'm a NetBSD developer but I don't have a recent x86 laptop, it is only in the last year that packages like Firefox and LibreOffice have got too big to run on my old laptop and I have started to think about buying a newer one, everything works fine on the old one.
People fix the problems that they see, but if developers don't have a need to buy new stuff for themselves then newer systems won't get support.

- xvilka 4y agoI recently thought it would be awesome to have DragonFly BSD working on Raspberry Pi (or any other modern ARMv8 machine) but it's not implemented yet - there is a small code bounty[1] but I would be happy to extend it for a couple $k. If you would be willing to help or know someone - feel free to contact me or leave a comment.
