Completely agree, MacOS is turning into a dumpster fire. They keep adding features nobody asked for, and making the whole thing more bloated and flaky in the process.
What I’m saying is that you could make an architecture similar to M1 which would have the same benefits of being fast and energy efficient, and slap a tailored Linux distro on top of it that just work out of the box. As a dev, I’d buy a decently built laptop like that in a second.

Well they have that fancy new SoC and all it’s horsepower they get to be irresponsible with now.
I’m really amazed that it’s been half a decade now and nobody has made a comparable SoC using ARM or RISCV tailored to Linux.
Nobody tailors hardware to Linux because Linux has historically accommodated crazy ass hardware. (And oh boy does Linus have a lot to say about that)

Don’t ampere and graviton already meet those needs?
