    Virtually any computer that isn’t Apple Silicon can install Linux on it and it’ll run smoother and faster than Win or Mac.

    People who are anti-Linux either don’t understand computers or are traumatized from the early 2000s

      Can’t Apple Silicon run some program called Parallel Desktops or something? Is there a Linux distro that has an ARM version?

        Most Linux distros have an arm version, but Apple silicon is another beast because Apple.

        Parallels is good for running Windows. It’s heavily optimized for Windows. I have both Fedora & Windows on my MacBook Pro through Parallels.

        But it’s nowhere nead native speed and you’re still using an ARM version of Win / Linux which comes with its own set of issues.

        Having said that, Parallels is good for when you need to run a specific Windows program. I haven’t run into anything that runs on Linux that I can’t set up on MacOS so I haven’t really needed the Fedora.

        On my desktop I use Fedora and it’s my favorite OS / Linux distro. But MacOS works. The M2 is worth it

      Even Apple silicone has a version of Fedora that works pretty well. Give it 10 years and I bet old Apple silicone machines will be faster on linux just like a lot of the older x86 macbooks are now.
