    Thanks to Fedora, it's now much easier to run Linux on your M1 or M2 Macs — just make sure you've got plenty of storage space ready

    Anyhow, if there are no developers who are "supposed" to use Macs, good luck on getting iOS and MacOS apps. That's a silly thing to say. Every iOS developer has a Mac.

    Thanks to Fedora, it's now much easier to run Linux on your M1 or M2 Macs — just make sure you've got plenty of storage space ready

Oh, forgot to mention, Hector Martin, the...

    This article is inaccurate, although it needs space, Asahi Linux installation is dual boot, it does not erase MacOS and in fact needs a MacOS partition firmware updates. It may have seemed that way because it makes the default boot Asahi. Also, Asahi is meant for Apple silicon so it doesn't...
