I’m really quite dismayed by the purely x86/x64-centric viewpoint.

No mention of POWER9, for example (my own personal favourite), which I’m running on my workstation (https://www.raptorcs.com/TALOSII/)

There’s several other ISAs out there (ARM, obviously, but desktop-, let alone workstation-class chips are hard at least for now a dicy proposition).

EDIT: Surprised by all the downvotes. Is mentioning anything outside the domain of x86 considered controversial nowadays?!
