Wasn't worth the hype for me at all. My m1 MBP might have better performance than my x1 carbon but my x1 walks all over the m1 in terms of software I can install thoughtlessly. I tried for months to get parallels + Ubuntu to do everything I needed it do to but I had to switch back to the x1 (which I could reformat today and have my productivity be the same within an hour); what a waste of time and money.

To be fair, if you really want to run Linux, why are you getting a MacBook? Plenty of better machines for that (with different trade offs) that are better suited to Linux.

I'm 30% tempted to give Linux a full time try again, this time on a Framework laptop. I previously used a Dell XPS 15 (high spec), but it was loud and hot and not a pleasant experience.

I returned my X1 due to poor thermal performance, bad Windows drivers, and incomplete Linux compatibility. I switched it out for an M1 Air which has been my favorite machine of all time.
