What sort of "opportunity" did authors miss? They're not a business.
Or is writing ARM assembler necessarily more fun than writing x86?

- The_Colonel 3y agoI think that not having enough x86 hardware is the least of authors' worries ...
- Cannabat 3y agoYeah but it’s hard to find the hardware this OS is designed for. There’s little need for it. Compared to the oodles or low powered arm boards out there that would love this. So the missed opportunity is just that a lot of effort has gone into a very narrow platform that would probably be more appreciated on a diff platform Super cool project though of course
