I don't know if you've been following marcan & co on their work on bringing linux to M1 macs, but it's moving along nicely. Pretty soon there will be an interesting conundrum for believers in open systems: buy high performance mac hardware but run an open OS on it, or take the high road and buy a "worse" laptop from a more open vendor.

One could view Marcan's work on Asahi Linux as "making M1 open".
Going out on a limb here, but as a firm believer in open systems I think it's fine to buy an M1 Mac to the extent it's guaranteed to run Linux (or OpenBSD, or whatever) without any problems.
System that can't do that are the ones to really avoid.
