How's Asahi on the M1 macbook? I'm considering switching, too.

Feels like it's constantly improving. I'm running it since 1.5 years. Battery life is much better now. It even supports TLP (with the AUR version).

Hard to tell what I'm missing currently. But I'm using rather basic tools in the command line and all these work fine. Of course Firefox works. Inkscape, Darktable, TexLive, too.

Looking at the site, it looks like it still doesn't support USB-C displays or Thunderbolt, which unfortunately, for me, is a dealbreaker (I use my MBA with a Thunderbolt dock on my desk). Looks like I'll still have to wait for a while.

How's battery life compared to macOS?
