    We’re still working out the kinks and making things even better, so we are not quite ready to call this a release yet. We aim to officially release the Fedora Asahi Remix by the end of August 2023. Look forward to many new features, machine support, and more!

    I really hope this has GPU support so I can migrate Plex over to Linux. macOS administration is a nightmare compared to just running K3s.

      Asahi Lina is a Vtuber on youtuber who streams her progress on improving GPU drivers for the apple silicon stack. 3D acceleration is coming along well last I checked!

      Not sure on encode/decode but I know for a fact that there are already users who daily drive Linux on M1 hardware, like Linus Torvalds so maybe encode and decode are good enough for basic use!

    Dang, if you told me that a Linux distro would be running on Risc-V before one was running on Apples ARM machines a year ago I would have seriously doubted you.

      Manjaro has already been supporting apple silicon for a while to be fair. Fedora is just big news since it’s a popular stable distro, and Manjaro has been a little bit controversial with their poor communication and buggy changes for ARM.

      That being said, RISC-V is coming along super fast atm. Won’t be long until we’re seeing ARM under competition at the price/performance level.

        It’s been a crazy couple of years starting with articles and videos that confidently explained why Risc-V will never be seen on cellphones let alone an existence as a desktop system.

        Fast forward to today there is official Debian support, the first batch of Risc-V laptops are getting delivered to customers, online retailers are full of high powered desktop development boards, Qualcomm, NXP, Bosch and others teaming up to start a Risc-V joint venture.

        Microsoft’s .net runtime just showed an early start on Risc-V. The Indian government themselves just announced a bunch of funding and long term planning into Risc development. We just saw the first 10g open source Ethernet switches.

        Heck you can go on YouTube and watch videos of people testing $100 development boards on Debian and I’ll be damned if they are doing everything that your average computer user wants without issue from basic office suite things like weird processing and spreadsheet work to Photoshop style image editing, 4k video playback, and 3D rendering.

        Maybe it’s because I can see an open architecture make a huge positive impact on the industry I work in or maybe because I love the concept of compute modules but I’m just so excited to see what Risc-v is doing right now, it’s so cool
