I would argue that if your games are already performant on the platforms you care about that you would get diminishing returns. The only reason to experiment with specialist asm would be for your own experience and enrichment which is a perfectly reasonable reason to pursue it.

It's probably not worth comparing to an OS where even shaving a few cycles off of code that runs all the time on millions of computers across the world would end up with significant impact.

You need to profile your binaries to find out where they spend most of their cpu time and try and optimise those areas with more efficient code before you even consider micro optimisations like asm for specific cpus. Considerations like algorithm choice and cache efficiency of your data will all likely have a larger effect.

Sadly the virtuous circle of profits being put back into research and development seems badly broken in so many business now.

I can see her managing a presidential speech given how low the bar has been set recently.

Sounds like it's a moo point to me.

You have niche hardware that no one has bothered to reverse engineer. There is niche hardware that works better in Linux too, but you don't complain about how difficult windows I'd when there is no support for it.

At least it's likely to get linux support at done point if it's popular enough, maybe complain to logitech so they know supporting linux is something their customers want?

Opensource in what way? It's just torrenting material and forwarding it to you, if you want to make your own personal private media streaming service you invest in storage and "aquire" media however you want to serve out using something like Jellyfin.

IPv6 should never be behind NAT which is a hack to extend the address space of Ipv4.

Only difference is lack of updates for security and latest android, turns phones into ewaste long before the end of the hardware useful life.

Still got the onerous signing procedure that still makes devs pay a tithe to Apple like in other markets I assume?
