Depends on the machine... Arch, Debian and ...Asahi! (Actually Fedora)

Apple supposedly makes good hardware, and my '23 mbp in 14' has excellent battery, great trackpad, very good sound and a beast of a screen. Now I don't like whatever material these machines are made of, they are downright unpleasant to grab or touch, and the keyboard is abismal shit. I hate it, I am seriously not using it as much as I could not because Asahi, or Fedora, or bugs, or the availability of certain software for Arm64, but because of that shit keyboard. Asahi runs great, the full Pipewire sound stack developed for it is a pleasure to work on. Switch monitoring every which way, plug Firefox into Ardour and rip youtube, it all works, period.

To me M2 with 16g of ram is about on par with an intel i12 in everyday life. Sure it will win on rendering movies or some specific stuff, but day-to-day it's like my friend' Carbon X1 on Mint really.

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're refering to as Ponyos, is in fact, GNU/Ponyos, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Ponyos. Ponyos is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.

Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, that version of GNU which quite nobody uses today is called Ponyos, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.

There really is a Ponyos, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Ponyos is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Ponyos is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Ponyos added, or GNU/Ponyos.

I only ever update between projects - no way am I going to break something in the middle of everything.

This time, jump to new gnome means broken extensions as usual, and a hilarious one: qbittorrent doesn't show it's window in Wayland (gnome-with-X works). The soft is running, it there in the list of apps, there's even a big X "Close Window" button on Zoom Out but no actual window.

Eh. Lol?
