Hi Guillaume, I'm okay with aligning aarch64 more with x86_64.. the timing is however funny because Qt just announced that over the long run they will stop embracing OpenGL.

Are you asking because of some compilation incompatibility somewhere ? I remember there were some apps (particularly in the KDE stack) blindly assuming that OpenGL would always be available in Qt.. I was hoping we could fix those over time. Also note that OpenGL support is on its (slow and very long) way out of Qt: https://www.qt.io/blog/qt-5.14-has-released The plan is to go with the more "native" lower level newer APIs like Vulkan, Metal etc. Or are you concerned about the lack of feature by feature compatibility with x86? that is a valid concern then I think, and if it makes any life easier we should align. :-) But the alignment could be by changing x86 to the more modern 3D apis .. although I don't know how painful that is going to be.
