Apple also controls the whole OSX world.
They effectively said new Macs will be arm. If you want to develop for OSX it better be ARM compatibility .
Microsoft has a chicken and egg problem. Why would I port even my games to Windows ARM when the vast majority of users will be on x64 anyway.
Windows ARM isn't much more efficient when running a x64 binary anyway. You have strange comparability issues.
This is less of an issue with Linux since we can ultimately recompile our own software.
But as mentioned above, Qualcomm doesn't feel like supporting Linux, at least not well enough for it to be usable.
Honestly Microsoft( or another OEM) needs to ship a dual boot ARM laptop. The 12th of never when they happens these laptops will sell well. As is they're effectively on clearance. A 3 month year old laptop already 30% to 40% off.
