What does that mean? How can GitHub reduce x86_64 support in Rust?
Seems to be justification according to their changelog. (Wish the site would just link to that) I'm assuming they were going to do it, anyway, now that Apple has pretty much phased out x86 support, and Github's discontinuation was just kinda put the final nail in the coffin.
Yeah, feels a little bit early when I know some devs in my company that still have x86 Macbooks, but I guess, it's not like bugs will show up immediately, so we'll see how that goes...
