Does Linux work well on those M chip Apple laptops?

Based on the progress Asahi Linux has made in the last year, I expect linux to be a reasonable option (for folks who are comfortable with a Linux installer) within the next 12 months.

It “works”, but not really well enough for general use. There’s a project called Asahi Linux dedicated to getting it to work, and it does run, but a lot of peripheral hardware (Bluetooth, accelerated graphics) is still not supported.

I’m not aware of any distribution other than Asahi (which is based on Arch) that can boot at all.
