Sequoia is running well for me and while 27 looks good in some ways, at some stage I expect diminishing returns such as slowness.

    I’m an M2 user but I want to reply, I’m using Sequoia but when Sequoia starts to get abandoned at all (even security updates) then I’ll switch to Tahoe.

      Do you have any criteria for a stopping point, or will you upgrade every year until there are no more supported releases?

        I think I’ll always stay in oldest version gets security updates. If there’s no update available, then I’ll just install Asahi

          I’m also hoping Asahi can extend the life of this thing. I don’t want to loose the current OS for that, though. On my 2011 MacBook I managed to dual-boot Ubuntu with macOS fairly easily. That works well, but it’s an Intel device.

            Asahi is not for Intel Macs. You can just install regular Linux on it

              Yeah. I have Ubuntu on the old Intel laptop. I’ll check out a few videos on Asahi to get a feel for installation process on the M1.

                Just to go Asahi website there’s a lot of info. If you want to watch a video about that, you can watch Veronica Explains’ video about it.

                  Her video is a great recommendation. Thanks! I love the way it uses macOS native tools to make the installation less tense. I’ll absolutely be installing it when the time comes. Thanks again!

                    What do you mean by macOS Native Tools?
