I’m debating trying to get my hands on a used m1 or M2 air for the primary use case of leaving it on my couch so I can quickly look stuff up. I thought about going with a chrome book, but all the snapdragon powered ones either have sketchy support or are expensive.

I also want it to have a small form factor so I think I want a MacBook air. I don’t have any interest in macos (which I use for work) so I was debating putting Linux on it.

Has anyone had experience with asahi Linux, or the fedora spin? Could you share what works/doesn’t etc?

Is there a better option I’m not thinking about?

    I installed it about a year ago. It worked fine in my (extremely) limited testing. I daily-drive MacOS and had recently got a MBP, so I figured why not give it a spin on my old Air as I’ve been supporting the project since its inception. I only used it for maybe five minutes. It seemed reasonably polished to me.
