#2New releases, with some benchmarks acrosse previous version and vs Rosetta.
Also introducing Box32 to run 32bits apps on 64bits systems

IMHO title of the blog post sabotages visibility when posted in places like HN.
It would be better if it contained some details on what is new, like "Native Flags (RISC-V, ARM), Strong Memory Emulation".

Thanks for the tip, I'll try to keep that in mind next time :)

#5Box64 is a really neat bit of software. I'm using it to run a community Trackmania Stadium server on a Raspberry Pi 0.

#6While I'm sure this is cool, I had to read a few typo filled paragraphs in to even start to get an idea of what the heck Box64 and Box86 are (some kind of emulator it seems from the comparison to Rosetta?)

I tried to fix the typo. It should be better now.
And yeah, Box86/Box64 let you run x86 linux programs on non-x86 platforms, like Rosetta on macOS.

#10as per the main page:
>Box64 lets you run x86_64 Linux programs (such as games) on non-x86 Linux systems, like ARM, RiSC-V or LoongArch (the host system needs to be 64bits little-endian).
> Box86 is the legacy 32bits version of Box64, used to run 32bits linux apps (like games) on 32bits Linux OS like Debian.
