a lot of people seem to not understand what used to go into running chrome on arm64 devices, this blog goes over it pretty well https://www.da.vidbuchanan.co.uk/blog/netflix-on-asahi.html
So does Chrome finally hardware accelerates You Tube on GNU/Linux, and supports WebGPU, just like on Android/Linux and ChromeOS/Linux?

What is necessary to run Linux ARM64 binaries on Android ARM64? To run conda-forge arm64 Linux binaries on Android in termux requires proot-distro because the ABIs are slightly different FWIU. What is necessary to run Android ARM64 binaries on Linux ARM64? Android Studio, LineageOS or BlissOS's outdated Android containers, a runtime like vinegarhq/sober that emulates just enough of Android. An Android binary that mak…
A fully statically compiled Linux ARM64 binary which only interacts with the kernel through syscalls should run no problem on ARM64 Android. From the kernel's perspective, there is no difference between a "Linux binary" and an "Android binary" because the kernel in Android is Linux. Most programs want to interact with various system libraries and system services though. Android and your typical desktop Linux system s…
Debian ships Chromium on many architectures for a long time now, apparently. I never tried it outside of x86_64, so I can't say how usable it is. What am I missing? Is this about V8 JIT and widewine? Although those must be already supported on chromebooks, so I don't know. Lists of architectures on oldstable (bookworm): amd64, arm64, armhf, i386, ppc64el https://packages.debian.org/bookworm/chromium From where I stan…

Firefox pre-packaged for Ubuntu on my NVIDIA Spark has no problems with YouTube? I guess it must be a snap, not a deb package, but... wouldn't that work?
Regular YouTube works as is (but has performance issues on my weak phone.) It's m.youtube.com that seems to require the DRM thing, at least for me. Have you tried that?

What is it like using a Spark as a workstation?
Just like any other Ubuntu machine, really. Just lots (128GB) of RAM and relatively lots of cores (10 efficiency, 10 performance). It's not screaming fast, but it's absolutely fast enough for anything I need to do and it's got insanely fast networking options if I need them. I like it, and the local AI options make it fun enough, too. Apart from a few hassles. No pre-packaged Discord or Slack or Chromium or Spotify a…
Bring the mobile UI there and it will be a news. Chromium has worked on ARM64 Linux since forever.
