    Wild. I’d imagine this would mean Proton on Box64… Painfully slow but for retro games, could allow for some fun on RISC-V boards until faster chips and better GPUs are available.

      One of the neat things is that Box64 will use libraries compiled for RISC-V of it can. Which means stuff like OpenGL will run at full speed.

        That’s indeed very cool. I’ve really wanted to get back onto RISC full-time and lament when Apple jumped ship to Intel (think where RISC would be had Apple been investing all these years).

        Any suggestions on decent RISC-V boards to build a box with?

    Fantastic. Gluing together Unicorn Engine and Wine has been on my to-do list for longer than I’d care to admit, so I’m thrilled someone else is tilting at this windmill.
