From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Lutris? As far as I know, Wine doesn't work on ARM. Unless they're targeting x86 with mobile shape form.

Lutris isn't only for wine. Its also a launcher for Linux native/flatpak games.

There's quite a few ways to get x86_64 running on ARM.

Are qemu / qemu user static and fex the main/active two these days?

Yes. But also :

Early development, but it'll get there eventually and we won't need a VM like qemu, or an emulator layer like Fex with driver mapping tricks (Asahi Linux) or Box86/64.
