This is good. Maybe it means some day we'll able to run Steam on it. Wouldn't that be funny? Windows emulation on x86-64 emulation on RISC-V.


I am hopeful valve will release a risc-v build themselves.

And wine/proton will integrate with this or some similar solution for running x86 binaries.


They can't. The games themselves are compiled for x86-64 and closed source. It's not enough if they just recompiled Steam, Proton, etc.


It seems as if there are unofficial(?) Steam ports to Arm which presumably run the x86-64 binaries in emulation, so that would be a similar sort of thing.
