For the average person (or even average tech person), what advantage would desktop Linux have over macOS, especially now that Apple is on proprietary hardware again?

Wasn't there already a desktop Linux for Apple Silicon (forget its name, Asahi maybe?), but last I checked, a bunch of things don't work right.

It's nice having a POSIX shell on Mac combined with the ability to use common business apps like Adobe or Microsoft stuff. What would Linux offer?
