The Herculean efforts made by the Asahi community are absolutely incredible and something I thought would not be achievable without support from Apple. I am grateful for their work and their example should definitely be a case to be studied. Not only their work benefited people using their hardware, some of their advancements (e.g., their work in Rust) benefit the ecosystem as a whole.
That said, I wouldn't buy hardware whose manufacturer does not officially support Linux. Unsupported hardware is absolutely not worth the trouble for me. I'll keep using the hardware manufactured by the company that has been responsible for ~10% of the Linux Kernel development over the last 15 years. I don't have to worry about my system not working due to bugs or regressions. Heck, I never even have graphics driver issues.
Also, I've been kinda expecting these Asahi people to eventually be picked by the Big Tech companies and thus stop their work on Asahi in order to prioritize the agendas of the people putting bread on their tables.
Good luck to all the people involved!
Me too. Asahi Linux is a big hack, I can't consider a Macbook a real Linux Computer
