    I don’t know much about ARM, but this is good right?

    It seems that the more officially supported, open source GPU driver stacks we have, the better.

    I believe it when useable in emulators in Android. Especially for Mali GPUs.

      End of the article mentions the following:

      Android was not mentioned by either Arm or Collobora, so I’d assume Arm will still focus their resources and provide closed-source Mali GPU drivers for Android, while expanding their support for Panfrost on Linux.

        android emulators can ship their own userland drivers, this is how a lot of android emulators ship turnip drivers which boast expanded vulkan feature support and sometimes better performance. and considering the open source nature, i can easily see someone porting it for rom usage especially considering how much of a meme mali drivers are on android and emulation community
