Exactly, with the caveat I'm buying very cheap pre-M1 Mac to put Linux on it. Works well.


it might work well today for m1/m2 but the writting is on the wall for linux in newer macs.

asahi development slowed down and is getting further away as apple releases new malcs yearly.

i don't think this is a good bet for those who want to use linux.


The later Intel Macs with T1/T2 chip also come with a number of caveats on Linux. Don't expect those to work out of the box with standard Linux distros.
