There's also basic ANE support for Asahi now:

I only have two minor issues:
There doesn't seem to be a working stop scroll event when using kinetic scrolling in Firefox. On osx you can stop kinetic scrolling by just touching the trackpad, but on linux you have to scroll a little bit to slow it down.
And generally the kinetic scrolling isn't yet consistent across applications. Firefox has a nice implementation, but it feels quite different from Gnome apps, and then some like gnome-terminal don't have working kinetic scrolling yet.
This doesn't yet work out of the box but the next few months will be very exciting.
On a personal note, the most interesting part here is that I did the
release (and am writing this) on an arm64 laptop. It's something I've
been waiting for for a _loong_ time, and it's finally reality, thanks
to the Asahi team. We've had arm64 hardware around running Linux for a
long time, but none of it has really been usable as a development
platform until now.
It's the third time I'm using Apple hardware for Linux development - I
did it many years ago for powerpc development on a ppc970 machine.
And then a decade+ ago when the Macbook Air was the only real
thin-and-lite around. And now as an arm64 platform.
Not that I've used it for any real work, I literally have only been
doing test builds and boots and now the actual release tagging. But
I'm trying to make sure that the next time I travel, I can travel with
this as a laptop and finally dogfooding the arm64 side too.Or go straight here: https://github.com/sponsors/gitclear
If you're into those things 3) is an issue due to various anticheat systems that don't yet run great on wine.
Trying to stop it just feels futile, why not let people have fun taking some pictures? It'll be over in a while anyways.
There are blobs, but I didn't manage to get them to work with recent Xorg or Wayland.
But there's hope in the form of Panfrost, which seems to be coming along nicely: https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=Panfrost...
Do you happen to know how that's usually done?
Works well.
Edit: I've tried (println! vs a single io::stdout::lock() and writeln!), and it doesn't seem to make any difference, at least for the range.rs example. Hmm.
I'm as sad as you are about licensing complications, but I can totally see why they're doing it. And I'd say it's miles better than these parts being closed.
E.g. parquet supports column indexes now: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PARQUET-1201
