People need to switch to Snapdragon processors. No issues like that with Snapdragon processors, the X Elite chips is about as good as an M2 or M3

And the X Elite 2 with 18 cores will likely be announced today :D - https://www.qualcomm.com/company/events/snapdragon-summit

But is it really a cpu issue? For example, the intel macs don't have that problem at all IME.

Thanks but no thanks. Trying to avoid qualcomm, broadcom and other open-source hostile companies.

Fair enough. There will be Ubuntu support just to let you know - https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/ubuntu-24-10-concept-snapdrag...

Apparently they're working with Qualcomm to make this happen.
