No, android does not count.

Is there anyone who daily drives Linux on apple silicon or other ARM hardware? If so, then how is your experience, would you recommend it?

For at least 3 years, I’ve been wanting to get an apple silicon mac to daily drive Linux on, lately I’ve been seriously considering getting one of these machines, or even other ARM hardware, like the thinkpad x13s or even the new Qualcomm laptops.

I’m pretty much sold on a used macbook air m1 at this point, but I still wish to hear what other people have to say

    It’s amazing. You press one button on a new out of box Mac and you’re in a zsh!

    Also, sleep and suspend just work.

      Mine sure doesn’t. I send it to sleep (since you can’t send it directly to hibernate like a normal OS), and the next day the battery is empty and it won’t start. This happens about once a month, and I haven’t found the common variable yet.
