Charitably a lot of people (or at least me) are trying to understand how to square that reality with Apple hand leaving that they’re going to “take care of that audience”. I’m starting to worry this is take care of in The Godfather sense of the term.
It’s possible to do, don’t get me wrong. For example, QEMU[0] does hardware virtualization.
Having said that, performance is not the same.
On the other hand, there are builds of Linux that are ARM. Windows also has ARM builds[1] and they also have a translation layer to run x86 applications[2]. This is done in software, so there’s a performance hit[3].
