only been back to GNOME full-time for about 2 months and whenever I open my MacBook it's jarring...

nothing is polished anymore. everything is a bit ugh. and I haven't even upgraded to the latest macOS yet.

times have changed. designers use #Linux.

@hbons I’m still a Mac-only user, but Linux attracts me more and more as Apple’s enshittification proceeds. I wonder though if the installation procedure and user-friendliness of Asahi Linux suffices for my lazy ass who is used to “It just works”, with little to no Terminal hassle. 😅

@metin @hbons Asahi will not, its honestly a miracle it runs at all since every single aspect of an M1 device is locked down and/or proprietary. You can use it, its not like its unusable, but don't expect a seamless "it just works" experence

@rogueren @hbons Thanks. That's a pity. It would be great if I could keep my desktop Mac and transition to Linux on that machine.

I hope once I'm ready for the move, the RAM circus hasn't made all hardware much more expensive. 😓

@metin @hbons You may have luck finding the last gen of Intel Macs that they made and installing Linux on that.
