I gotta say, after getting Fedora 43 + t2linux up and running on a 2018 MacBook Air (which I snagged from my mom after she got a new laptop), I kind of like having it as a laptop at my chair compared to the hot and heavy behemoth that is my Framework Laptop 16 (also running Fedora 43).

Sure, the 2018 MBA is a bit sluggish and, like the MacBook Neo, limited with its 8 GB of RAM, but it's still more than good enough to watch videos on YouTube and Nebula, do a little bit of coding, note taking and maybe even editing some audio with Audacity.

I've used a 2016 MacBook Pro with a butterfly keyboard for some time, so I'm kind of used to the keyboard on this MBA.

@qlp I'm playing around with the t2 NixOS too. I hate the t2 era. But the fedora is nice on them

@codemonkeymike I don't love them either (especially the shit show of the MacBook Pros when it came to heat and noise), but I wanted to see how usable t2linux is and I was flipping surprised at how much worked after installing the packages and kernel.

The only issue I had was waking from suspend with LUKS was a fail. I ended up skipping LUKS on the second attempt and everything that I need out of a tertiary laptop works.

@qlp yeah and the whole wifi song and dance you have to do.
