@awws @t3rcermillenium oh, Daryl there are many infos out there where it is not necessary to add my 2 cents. I use #asahilinux since two months now and i bought a used m2 MBP from a friend of mine. after some time etting it up i have now averything I need set up:
- web browsing, email
- libre office to do my business work
- a couple of messenger (signal, delta.chat)
- vm-manager with windows 11 VM for my old financial software which i am intensively looking for an replacement
...
@t3rcermillenium why not giving #asahilinux a chance? I am so happy working on Apple silicon since this year. I have booted MacOS exactly once since i own it - just to start Installation process of asahi

So far I’m impressed third party software support lacks but that expected, so far all necessary functionality works amazing took me a bit to get used to the keybinds but no other complaints so far.

Linux Easy - News da Mondo Linux

I'm using a Macbook Pro M1 whenever I'm not at my main system - and of course I'm using #AsahiLinux instead of macOS. I'm also sponsoring this project since I think it's quite critical that there's a well working aarch64 Linux platform available.

The latest progress report from the project is just insane. Considering the scope of the work done this project works at an incredible pace.

Just wanted to say that. I'm so impressed.

(Why I want aarch64? Well, you know, all those IoT devices that need hacking are using that so ... )

Progress Report: Linux 6.19 - Asahi Linux

120Hz on Asahi Linux!! ❤️‍🔥
