So Firefox Nightly for Linux on top of Arm64 hardware, like Apples, Lenovos, a whole bunch of Chromebooks etc.

Raspberry Pis have been arm64 since at least the 3, but raspbian was armv7 for a while longer. So yeah this would work on a raspberry pi with a aarch64 OS.

Wow, only took them … years!

If perhaps pretty please Mozilla realizes that an official ARM64 Flatpak is the perfect distribution channel for their nightly (and hopefully soon stable) ARM64, I’ll be happy and they did a great service to the Linux community. (Especially regarding Fedora Atomic Desktops / Aeon.)
