Comment (by programmingkidx):
I spent months working on porting PyPy to ARM64 Mac OS. It is really bad
to work on. You have to rely on their rpython language. I have a good idea
what the r stands for now... After having the main parts of PyPy working
on ARM64 Mac OS I ended my work on it stopping with the foreign function
interface code. This means if you import a library it will probably crash
PyPy. In the end I so regret spending so much time on it. The maintainers
were creeps. I hope never to hear from them again. They were awful to work
with. The funny thing is they thank Maciej Fijałkowski for the work, but
it was me who did about everything 🙄. Well PyPy was able to run code very
fast on my M1 Mac. I was pleased with that. Recently I discovered Google's
Go language and left Python coding so you may do as you wish with this
port. I don't need it anymore.
