I've almost gotten away with it. IME, server and command-line ports that I've tried seem to compile and run without much trouble on ARM. Apache, BIND, sendmail and even Xorg work acceptably. Self-hosting was a hair-puller but seems to work ok recently. Many moons ago www/chromium compiled and ran on aarch64 (PI3) as did firefox. If the project offered a precompiled package for any serviceable browser it'd help, but the need isn't great enough to warrant more hardware. In a pinch, Raspbian offers a decent GUI that mostly works. I hopped on the ARM bandwagon expecting it to move somewhat faster than it has. Evidently the hurdles were bigger than anticipated, but the basics still work quite well. Thanks for posting! bob prohaska
