Hello,

First of all, thank you for you great work. Pleas, take my suggestion as something to think about and consider, not a complaint at all. I do appreciate your work, and there is also a change my assumptions are wrong.

When I installed the Collabora Office app on Android, I learned that it shares much code with the online version. Given that the Android version is 64 bit, would it be possible to make available an aarch64 version of Collabora online? Either as a docker image or an Ubuntu PPA? (Ubuntu 20.04 will be supported for 5 years, so it seems to be a safe bet).

There are many capable aarch64 machines around there that are used as servers (RP4 as a home servers, and many other used for commercial solutions).

I do understand that supporting another architecture is time consuming and costly, but isn't most of the work done already on Android platform? Wouldn't making CODE available on aarch64 bring more testers, and as such, more benefit? (I am suggesting aarch64 as opposed to armv7 supposing that all server installations use the aarch64 architecture).

Please, let me know, what your opinion on the matter is.
