I'll sadly be on Mac for work until there's a Linux build that can compete with the M1 performance, thermals, and battery life. I can't believe I lived so long with laptops that couldn't be used on my lap.

You can use Asahi Linux on an M1 Mac.

I've tried it and it's not ready for my daily workload. I'll probably be able to switch in a year thankfully. I am sick of Mac os

From what I've heard of colleagues that chose macOS, it mostly seemed like a pain in the ass. Like, that they can't run the actual software, because they have ARM hardware. Or lots of small differences between macOS and the Linux that we'll deploy to...

Not really Mac, but I had more issues with normal, very light, work on my iPad than on Arch testing, even with NVidia.
