the m1 is an example of arm only being available to a very rareified, select user: apple, the biggest tech company on the planet by far.

qualcomm's 8cx gen2 is a possibly interesting consumer offering i miggt cite if i wanted to talk about arm inroads. but again much harder to acquire & use than x86, no public documentation. and the core is from december 2018 (kryo 495), which feels like a typical arm pace: very slow to get modern chips in consumers hands, except bleedingly expensive flagship phones.
