        both clover and open core support dual-booting as long as you plan the installation ahead and not after installing macOS, getting macOS to work on your laptop properly is a much bigger hassle if this is what you meant

        check out asahi linux, they is still a lot of progress, but they are on their way to reverse engineer the apple arm gpu architecture and subsequently develop a foss driver for it

        their end goal is to make a linux distro that is supposed to specifically run really good on apple arm hardware

          Noice. I think also there are a few non-apple arm laptops coming out next year, and I think arch linux, and maybe ubuntu, and manjaro have arm versions. Most of all its gonna be exciting to get a lot more apps built for arm.
