It seems that RISC V is starting to eat into ARM’s sales,.correct me if I’m wrong. I know that althought Risc V does not have the performance, it’s bcase as a CPU that RISC V is open hardware, free of any licensing so angbody can build and modify a RISC V processor free of all financial obligations or restraints. Thankfully big tech is developing their own RISC V processor because in the years ahead it could mean that each corporation makes their own processor for servers which means nothing to buy for hardware.

No, that does not mean it will be a real world competitor to x86_64, but it does mean it could be a free alternative to ARM, depending on a device’s design. I would buy a RISC V tablet and install BSD on it.
