Thinking of making a POWER9 build, in 2022. Am I crazy?

This page summarizes the projects mentioned and recommended in the original post on /r/PowerPC

Our great sponsors
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • wasmtime

    A fast and secure runtime for WebAssembly

  • I don't think any software I'm working on would really have architecture issues (since we test with Linux, macOS on x86_64 and aarch64), but it would be nice to catch & fix any. I'd also look at porting Wasmtime to POWER, since we use that in our project.

  • box86

    Box86 - Linux Userspace x86 Emulator with a twist, targeted at ARM Linux devices

  • Not in Europe unfortunately. And for anything not working on Power, I could try box86. If it works for games on the RPi, I'm sure Power would work nicely too https://www.gamingonlinux.com/2022/04/box86-and-box64-get-steam-play-proton-working-much-better-on-arm-devices/.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
