It's not like you have any choice other than GNU/Linux if you get a LoongArch based computer lol. I don't think Apple will ever give a shit and Microsoft currently only has an ARM port of Windows which mostly works on some aarch64 boards. It's obviously a move to make themselves more independent of western closed source garbage.

You don’t need bleeding edge hardware to do email, spreadsheets, and document editing.

emacs ftw.
