arm is very primed to take a lot of market share of server market from intel. Amazon is already very committed on making their graviton arm cpu their main cpu, which they own a huge lion share of the server market on alone.

for consumers, arm adoption is fully reliant on the respective operating systems and compatibility to get ironed out.

Linux works great on ARM, I just want something similar to most mini-ITX boards (4x SATA, 2x mini-PCIe, and RAM slots), and I'll convert my DIY NAS to ARM. But there just isn't anything between RAM-limited SBCs and datacenter ARM boards.

Arm servers are slow, and arm laptops are not compatible with Linux.

Servers being slow is usually fine. They're already at way lower clocks than consumer chips because almost all that matters is power efficiency.
