Yes, absolutely.

Asahilinux >> MacOS

It's wonderful to use the M2 with incredible battery life and performance without having to have a subpar OS.

Can I ask: is setting up dual-boot trivial? I’d love to check it out but can’t ditch MacOS entirely.

The installation process sets it up to you. You'd have to do more work to not have dual-boot (unless there was a setting in the installer that I forgot).

AFAIK dual boot is currently the only way to use Asahi on Apple Silicon Macs.

Is there anything that doesn't work for you?

I'm not parent, but from my quick foray into (Fedora) Asahi on a Macbook Air M2, I at least noticed USB-C connection to my monitor and USB router behind it not working at all. There's something Mac-specific going on there, because from my x86-based linux laptop, this usually works fine.
