The question now is whether this also allows x86_64 binaries to run on an aarch64 host, for example on Asahi Linux machines?

@haeckerfelix If it's like QEMU binfmt, then every arch can run on every computer (really useful when using x86_64 containers on my Raspberry)

@haeckerfelix On aarch64 machines, it definitely can run amd64 binaries. Tested that on Qualcomm phones, so cannot confirm it for Apple SoCs specifically. But browser engines usually break under QEMU, so Zoom, Discord, or Spotify did not work for me.

@haeckerfelix is this really some Flatpak-specific mechanism, or just qemu + bindmt?

@haeckerfelix would box64/box86(if there is 32bjt support) not be faster?

@haeckerfelix I’d try this on any of my aarch64 machines if I knew how to invoke this madness. I have rpi5, macMini, pbp… I’d be interested if it works as well!
