Wine fans have a reason to smile today. Wine 11.0 is finally here, and it is a big deal for anyone running Windows software on Linux. After a full year of work, more than six thousand code changes, and hundreds of bug fixes, Wine is moving forward in a way that feels like a turning point. This release tightens up major subsystems, improves performance, expands hardware support, and carries a big win for compatibility. If you have been waiting for Wine to feel smoother and a little less fussy, 11.0 might be the moment you jump back in.

My setup is a Mac M4 Max with wine and or crossover out of the box. Maybe I didn’t config it before using?

    I know macs are a little more different than normal arm CPUs with page size etc. Don't you need fex or box64?

    The Mac ecosystem has its own set of tooling for this. It uses Apple’s Rosetta 2 for x86 to ARM translation, and their Game Porting Toolkit (GPTK) for DX12 to Metal (Apple’s proprietary graphics API) translation.

    (Should note that Asahi doesn’t have full support for M4 Macs yet so I’m assuming they’re on MacOS)
