That is probably true, but you need to find people that:
- can
- have time
- want
In reality you can usually only pick two of the above.
#AlpineLinux is in similar situation, even if we have good ARM support. And yes, it is not a good place to be in.
@ncopa @marcan @Foxboron @Sobex alpine (and postmarketOS) do have some support for M1 too (including forked mesa). It would be nice to see that become more polished especially since the installation steps look a bit convoluted. https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/Apple_Macbook_Air_M1_(apple-tonga)
Its not Arch buuut if you really want Arch packages distrobox is there. Otherwise we follow more or less the same rolling release model or you can switch to stable and just upgrade every 6 months.
