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

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?

    Using Linux tool to resist partitions and install a boot loader can back fire sometimes if the original system doesn’t play nice with it.

    Avahi uses macOS own partitioner via command line. You can switch back and forth between the two systems easily and not worry so much about losing access to one or the other after an update.
