    This is good even if you don’t care about Chrome, because it means Widevine should become properly supported on the platform.

      I had to look that up, it’s the DRM system you need for most streaming services, like e.g. Netflix.
      Wikipedia page says though, that it is also integrated in Firefox?

        Yes, but it is a binary blob that Google makes and Firefox just integrates with. If it is not released for a specific platform, Firefox can’t do anything about it. At least a while a go it was quite an adventure to try and get DRM working on ARM64 Linux: https://www.da.vidbuchanan.co.uk/blog/netflix-on-asahi.html

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
