That's both an obscure and a complicated OS/Arch combination.

Ok. A more realistic example. I want to develop a Windows game, because that's where the audience is. And I want to develop my game in Rust, because I know it better than C++.

So, I need a tar/zar/mar library that exists on Linux as a C lib or Rust native library. My goal is to finish the game but don't care about performance or even CVEs that much.

They definitely did maintain several drivers, and Clear Linux Distribution.

But I was talking about their overall strategy. They are pivoting to "Intel first" mantra, sacking many Linux driver maintainers.

What niche is it popular now that hasn't been devoured by C++, Java and others?
