Good news! World Community Grid has WU for our raspberry Pi (on Libreelec, 32 bits!)

Still Yoyo@home works fine under BOINC in my Raspberry Pi 4 with Libreelec 9.2 following your indications
. Let's hope the way towards kernel 5 is not very long...Boinc's announcement about arm was a bit misleading. It got me excited at first as well. Turns out, they are now supporting arm64, not 32. Even though rpi4 has a 64bit chip, LE runs 32bit software on it (so does raspbian) and that's why it's a no go.

Boinc software does work . World Community Grid and Rosetta projects doesn't seem to acept this CPU (even if they announce they work on ARM Android devices), and LHC seems to not send Working Units. Yoyo@home works fine.
Can't connect to Folding at home software at port 7396, not sure if it works on Pi.
Update: Performance on the Pi 4 (4gb) is higher than I thought... 1.814 x4 floating point MIPS vs 4.326 x12 on a Ryzen 2600X (with lots of background apps, maybe 4.500 on a clean system...). A pity I can't contribute research at Rosetta and World Community Grid with a Pi that is on 24/7...

Just wondering if it is possible to intall BOINC on a raspberry pi 4 with Libreelec, and if it's more power-efficient than a standar PC. Each World Community Grid working Unit takes like 3 hours on a PC on a ryzen 2600X (12 threads), but it's 95w.
I would like to use my Raspberry to help scientist finding cures for malaria/covid/HIVS etc
