From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I run it on my M1 because MacOS sucks that much.

GPU is weak
Battery life sucks
Speakers don't work

Everything else works fine. My device is always plugged in and I have a headset so I don't notice anything but the GPU limitations, but It's great as a secondary laptop.

I certainly won't ever buy another MacBook, but Asahi prevented this one from being a complete waste
