Is it? I have my old M1 Air and I am very curious but don't want to go through the trouble of fiddling about with linux for a few days just to leave it rotting after. I would be inclined to maintain a dual boot situation as well and SSD space is at a premium.

As far as I can tell, Asahi actually requires dual boot. There doesn't seem to be an option to install it standalone. (But I have an M4 Air, so I'm not able to install it yet)

Just looked into it - MacOS is required for installation - and they firmly recommend leaving a minimal installation on the drive for things like firmware updates and disaster recovery.

I think it’s wonderful, go for it if the few rough areas don’t bother you: https://asahilinux.org/docs/platform/feature-support/overvie...

go for it, I installed NixOS on Asahi on a whim a few months ago and I only rebooted to MacOS to resize the partition
