That is indeed a bit confusing. If you click on the "Support Tier" link (in the table heading) it's documented as: 21.6. Tier 4: Unsupported Architectures Tier 4 platforms are not supported in any form by the project. We (FreeBSD) should really just remove that and replace Tier 4 with unsupported. > Might be worth talking to the Rust people as well, to see if you can > get a promotion from Tier3 to Tier2. Yes, good idea. I've had discussions with a few Arm folks about improving the rust tier for FreeBSD/arm64, but should do this for x86_64 as well.
