Comment on Figuring out what to do with an old Mac Mini (Base M1) Linux?
Luemen@lemmy.world 11 hours agoOk yeah thanks a bunch! And yeah it is pretty silly. I host game servers for the friends and sometimes they dont have linux runners and they dont play nicely in bottles or wine so I have to have a windows VM for those. I try my hardest to stay away from that platform.
I’ll have to go give this a shot.

Hmmm, games / game servers are a bit different since, they are rarely ARM and mostly x86.
You can use tools like muvm or fex to run the x86 version of wine, and then use that to run game servers: docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/…/x86-support/
People have been able to game on the M1 since it has hardware acceleration, although I never gamed.
