M3 and M4 haven't been supported yet because they weren't a priority (looks like they've been focusing on gaming support for the last year or so).

Alyssa said in her talk that they'll probably get it working in 6 months or so: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pDsksRBLXPk&t=2932s

I believe the video decoder (h264 etc) is actually separate from the GPU.

Right now we don't have any support for Android and iOS in particular, but we do support Linux/ARM (regular Linux). It's an interesting use case however.

> In my understanding it supports most of the TLS stack and many other standard libraries as well

We don't have a proper net package yet so usage on Android/iOS will be rather limited.

Supporting GC on WebAssembly has been a _major_ pain for TinyGo because WebAssembly doesn't allow access to the stack. It's really slow and I'm still not confident it's bug free. Having a GC integrated in WebAssembly itself should solve these issues.

Unfortunately, the current GC design for WebAssembly doesn't support interior pointers which is going to be difficult to work around (but I don't think it's impossible). Interior pointers are normally required in Go.
