Im out of the loop with those. Are Arm and socs viable alternative for home computing?

Last time I checked I could not build a pc with Arm. Post above is right intel and amd are dominating home user market.

I have a macbook air m1 and this arm chips is imo just amazing. No fan no issues, fast as fuck. Id like to build a pc with arm. Maybe when Linux and windows show more support for arm64?

Linux supports ARM64 very well. Windows also has had ARM support for a quite a while. The main obstacles are 3rd party binary software (particularly on Windows) and lack of available hardware.

Oh, for desktops? I don't know. I was referring to macbooks and mac minis.
