I think I saw something about kernel compatibility just the other day. No idea what the other pieces are the puzzle are.

The Linux 6.2 kernel released yesterday has official M1 support. It takes a lot more than just the kernel to have a functional machine: GPU and (W)LAN drivers, power management support, etc. But we are getting closer.
Anyways, if one day Linux reaches the point where it's fully compatible with the M* series I am not gonna have second thoughts on purchasing one, right away.
