Why does Linux run so well on ARM - eviltoast

I’ve seen people talking about it and experienced it myself with a server, but why does Linux run so well on ARM (especially compared to Windows)?

    Theese devices support linux out of the box. Try installing a proper linux distro on your phone and good luck finding a graphics driver that is not sotware rendering

      As did microsofts arm device support windows, which is the point zi was replying to with skullgiver. of course windows works if the arm version was built for the hardware it runs on.
