Just waiting for Asahi Linux to get microphone working and I can finally use Fedora on my M2 Air all my other computers run Linux. Dropped Windows over 15 years ago it was bad then and it just keeps getting worse every update.

How is Asahi support on M1 Air, I'm thinking about getting a refurbished device for running asahi as daily drive

It runs great just no steam for games because no arm64 support but runs really good.

The feature support page shows Bluetooth as working in the M2 Airs. Is there a particular feature or compatibility issue that you’re waiting on?

It was windows 7 but my install got screwed up Some how not sure how a freind gave me a Ubuntu USB and I didn't want you try it I wanted to reinstall windows but didn't have another windows computer at the time or acces to one. And I installed Ubuntu 8.Something and back then making a Windows USB wasnt easy like it is now on Linux and never got it working so I just embraced Linux glad I did prepared me for my Dev ops career.
