    This is more than enough of an answer for the people that went “wHy BoThEr?” when this project started.

    All of this great work, all of it upstreamed and a big part of it will (hopefully) influence even x86_64 machines if distros, communities and companies start supporting them. speakersafetyd sounds like a godsend for all laptop speakers, the pipewire energy-efficiency work sounds lovely for all laptops, specially more recent Intel ones, with P and E cores.

    Really neat stuff, hopefully I’ll be able to switch as soon as Thunderbolt/USB-C displays are sorted out (I primarily use my Mac with the lid closed)

    Definitely worth a try for anyone curious.

    I’ve been dual booting it since their earlier releases and things are surprisingly smooth now.

    Been trying to get my friend into Linux, but he uses a MB. Maybe this will finally do it for him

    This would have been exciting to me if it was like back in the PowerPC dying out days when my old elementary school gave away all their old macs from the computer lab and I acquired about half of them and installed Linux on them.
