Yeah, I'm getting very curious about Mac laptops but I'm only going to bite the bullet if Linux has good ARM support. I really don't want to use MacOS.
Very fair. I don't mind it personally - zsh is zsh, homebrew is a capable package manager, and Aqua is reminiscent enough of gnome, but with better gesture support on trackpad.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought Linux has fine ARM support. IIRC, the issue was reverse engineering the drivers for the hardware included in the M-series Macs?
To be honest, if the M1 could play more games without a ton of translation going on I'd be using it right now. The computer was truly nuts. Linux has been perfect tho.
