The cool thing I always find with reading up on #AsahiLinux's progress reports is the often, "elegant" solutions required/implemented by #Apple for their hardware (despite the jankiness of #macOS, honestly), and the Asahi Linux team reverse engineering and reimplementing it, bringing some of that "elegance" and brilliantly engineered/designed solutions over to #Linux (perhaps in a better way, working with retrospect and all).

Honestly this project is a win-win for a lot of parties - again, the (incredibly talented) Asahi team is able to replicate/reiterate on some of these brilliant designs Apple's done and bring them to Linux, both Apple and Linux itself have been receiving important reports of some well hidden bugs found by the Asahi team throughout their development, and #Rust is becoming increasingly more present in the Linux kernel which as I've grown to understand is a very important "fight".

Heck, this project has even brought to light some of the nasty parts of the Linux (development) community that a lot of users wouldn't have known about otherwise, which critically needs fixing.
