hi,

in order to serve Linux tablets and phones, even Laptops based on arm64 will become more popular I guess: Are there plans to add arm64 builds to https://www.torproject.org/download/languages/ ?

thanks a lot,

The "linux-cross" target patches I'm working on for tor-browser-build are designed with the intent of supporting arbitrary architectures with minimal additional work. So although 32-bit ARM and 64-bit LE POWER are my primary areas of interest, it would probably not be difficult for me (or someone else) to adapt that work to handle other arches, such as 64-bit ARM, BE POWER, or RISC-V. Whether I decide to do that type of extra work myself mostly depends on whether I end up with the necessary hardware (I have an Asus C201 and a Talos II, both of which I use regularly, so those ports are motivated by personal need). Also I make no guarantees on when the linux-cross patches will actually be ready to merge (it's a "for fun on weekends" project for me), although it seems like things are making progress (and Georg's review has been very helpful).

Cheers,
