>>40271779asahi linux, the only linux for ARM macs, is single-handedly carried by a trans woman (picrel) who reverse-engineered the graphics chip. without her, there would be no gpu acceleration to speak of on those chips
having written a fair amount of drivers for my day job i cannot even begin to imagine having to do it without 100+ pages of internal documentation and access to the hardware team when the documentation is all wrong
it's like the switch emulators: it takes so much work to reverse-engineer and then build the damn thing, even though anyone could theoretically take the yuzu codebase and maintain their own fork, in practice nobody will beyond minor cosmetic tweaks which require comparatively little knowledge
