  • As soon as they came out with scale, I knew core was going to be cut off when scale got good enough. There are just more possibilities with what you can do with Linux. The extra community support can not be understated as valuable to a profit driven company. At the end of the day, they gotta eat too and having one base system instead of two is the way they need to do it. The features are growing much faster on scale than they ever were on core in my opinion.

    Yes, provided that you already have their number and don’t send anything too risky. Following someone around with your phone to show them memes might freak them out if you don’t know them.

    “Hey Lady! Stop running, I just want to show you my memes!”

    “Get away from me!”

    That is not socially acceptable.

    If you want someone to smile, you don’t tell them to smile, that will just piss them off. The real solution is to try to make them smile by cheering them up. Ideally with something funny or wholesome. Who knows? They might really appreciate it and be a bit more fond of you.








  • Keep in mind that asahi cut out X11 support and went straight for wayland. It can support xwayland, just know that some things may or may not play nicely if the software doesn’t support wayland. As Wayland is the future of compositors, most popular Linux software should support it eventually.

    Linux on arm is good, however as it is not nearly as popular in the desktop space as x86, common binaries for certain applications may not exist on arm if it closed source. You may or may not need those, you can make that judgement call.

    Battery life is better than I expected but still not nearly as good as Macos. At least until they can come up with a proper solution for low power usage. Which currently a logistical problem of making something Linux kernel upstream compatible instead of applying a functional dirty solution now.

    Linux on M1 is noticeably snappier than anything else I have ever used. It has a great future ahead of it. If your workloads don’t rely on heavy gpu usage and all your software can be found or compiled there. It is a pleasant experience. If you have any other questions, feel free to ask. I think some of the other users talked about the common things well enough.

    Also yes, dual booting is currently the only supported option. They still need macos for firmware upgrades.
