tl;dr Alyssa Rosenzweig. Amazing news, she’s been a driving force behind reverse engineered GPU driver project Panfrost as well as had part in the Apple M1 GPU driver. I was surprised to hear that she was leaving Collabora but it makes sense that she’d end up at Valve. Hoping for great things in the PC GPU space from her!

Valve’s been a blessing to all of us, it’s really hard to overestimate the effect they had on Linux gaming as a whole

Have you guys seen her CV? The achievement/age ratio is stunning. All the best to her!

She’s a genius. After seeing what she did for the M1 driver, I am sure we’re going to be in for a treat with whatever she’s working on next.
