I mean, for me personally, I don’t mind having to do a good amount of legwork to get a distro running – that was the case with getting Linux running on most x86 laptops for a long time. but not even being able to get critical functionality working would make Asahi Linux a non-starter for me – I’d prefer to either get a PC laptop and run Linux or an MBP and run MacOS with a load of homebrew packages.
and don’t get me wrong, it’s really cool that Asahi’s development is moving so fast! but it’s just not at a place where I could run it on a work machine, and I bet that applies to many other professionals, too.
