I don't think it harms them financially though. You still have to buy the macbook and I don't think they earn any significant amount of money from you running macOS on it after that, I've bought like one $6 app on the mac app store. Being able to run linux makes me more likely to buy more macbooks in the future and if I can run windows games I'll get the highest-specced one available.

If they make hardware you like, why would you want them financially harmed?

Oh I don't at all, I was contesting

Because I don't think Asahi harms them.

Not using their software breaks their walled garden, which I'm all for breaking. That's all I meant
