On: Firefox beta supports Apple silicon natively

They addressed it, but didn't give any indication when x86 containers will be ready (and how they'll do it). Expect at least next year.

Expect at least next year.

If HN supported DLCs[1], I'd take the under on such a bet. The Apple Silicon DevKit which these guys have had access to since the summer didn't support virtualization (being based on the A12 SoC) but they knew that going in. I'd like to think they got some meaningful work done.

Apple showed Debian running on a prototype Apple Silicon Mac back in June at WWDC. I’d bet they’ll have something before the end of the year.

and this was my main concern. Most teams I've worked in that used docker use x86 containers for the dev containers.

x86 containers will be supported with qemu just like arm containers are supported on Docker for Mac now.
