Comment on Developing on and for Chromebooks is a terrible experienceparent

Comments

I got a framework chromebook and I'm very happy with it. The only thing that would be better would be running chromeos on a fast system with no fan, but that doesn't exist.

An apple silicon/arm is the ideal laptop form factor since it's fast and has no fan, but apple won't let google use that as a building block of course. I have tried running x86 binaries on my mac studio, it's dead slow as others have reported with ubuntu; I tried an arm ubuntu image and it ran at native speed. I couldn't immediate figure out how to get an arm chromeos vm to try to run on it.
