    On a personal note, the most interesting part here is that I did the
    release (and am writing this) on an arm64 laptop. It's something I've
    been waiting for for a _loong_ time, and it's finally reality, thanks
    to the Asahi team. We've had arm64 hardware around running Linux for a
    long time, but none of it has really been usable as a development
    platform until now.
    
    It's the third time I'm using Apple hardware for Linux development - I
    did it many years ago for powerpc development on a ppc970 machine.
    And then a decade+ ago when the Macbook Air was the only real
    thin-and-lite around. And now as an arm64 platform.
    
    Not that I've used it for any real work, I literally have only been
    doing test builds and boots and now the actual release tagging. But
    I'm trying to make sure that the next time I travel, I can travel with
    this as a laptop and finally dogfooding the arm64 side too.

Ditto here - I've been using Asahi as my daily driver (development workstation) for over 3 months now with no plans on changing from it any time soon: https://jasoneckert.github.io/myblog/asahi-linux/

For anyone else that didn't know, Asahi is Linux crafted for the Apple M1 chip:

Awesome! I remember Linus wanting to use the M1 macbooks but he was very somber on Linux working on there.
