The same thing can be done for RISC-V.
Also there is not a way to translate xbox360 games and n64 games into C++ and then compile them for PC so they run natively. So the binary compatability thing isn’t an issue.
I personally have been daily driving a fully free and open source on all my machines for years now and I only really have issues with video drivers, and only then because I don’t want to switch to Wayland from X11. If RISC-V takes off and is viable as a desktop I will be able to run my exact same setup, the same way my raspberry pi can do anything my pc can. This is one of the perks of using open source, among many more. It’s a much better experience knowing that you and the community can solve any problem with a little bit of elbow grease, rather than being trapped by proprietary code with no way out. It literally feels freeing, I can’t really explain it.
There is open source software to translate x86 to ARM, check this video out: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aP0yUqcyY18
