gollark: I think it's JIT-compiled.
gollark: Realistically, it's going to be slow and break somehow on some application(s) people like.
gollark: They apparently have an emulation layer.
gollark: They're moving to ARM, apparently, which is likely to introduce yet more !!FUN!! and eventually locked-down-ness.
gollark: Also good software support because it's popular.
