If it wasn’t obvious I was referring to ARM

ARM won't make the money x86/AMD64 currently make. As long as ARM won't run legacy code bases or libraries, developers won't make the switch.

Even though the M1 and M2 are great chips, they haven't changed much regarding developers switching or abandoning x86/AMD64.

Even though .net 7 has native support for ARM, no developer is going to read 200.000+ lines of code to port .Net 3 or .Net 4 functions to .Net 7. That's the sad reality. There needs to be a breakthrough in ARM so it can execute x86/ARM64 and than we should have a great future regarding power efficiency.
