normal consumer applications like browsers compiled for arm64 still sucks, a lot more tooling improvement is needed before x86 can be "dumped".

I used arm firefox and Microsoft edge (no linux arm build yet). ok la, just like normal x86. why bad?

Mostly features and performance build flags that can't be enabled because different architecture and/or support like widevine

There's also still (publicly) open crashing related bugs that is not yet resolved like https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1802538

btw what are you using for arm firefox? an sbc like rpi? or an arm laptop like the ones from lenovo?
