Long time Raspberry Pi user here, the only software I can’t load natively is Steam. What software are you having problem with on the M1?

So, downvoted, huh? By fellow open source users who don’t want to hear the truth?
The truth is that you might have experienced this, but this might not reflect the average user’s experience. My older ThinkPad feels no difference in better life based on the web browser.
Security theater: All you stuff is encrypted but they have the decryption keys
Proprietary App Store: The apps and the store itself are proprietary and I don’t trust Apple.
Gaslighting their customers: Images shared with Android users from iPhone are purposely crushed to a unreviewable quality. The idea is to convince people that Android takes terrible photographs.
Admittedly, I bought an Nvidia card for AI. I am part of the problem.
It never went away.
There will be some growing pains, but the x86 compatibility layers are getting surprisingly good. Personally, other than Steam, I don’t have any software this is incompatible with ARM.
After enjoying the very local power of Ollama it seems weird to give OpenAI any money.
No, but you can disable Adobe Acrobat Document Cloud services.
Boot to USB drive and load documents from backup. After my shift is over, I restore or replace the bad drive.
If you want to test out Linux, try running a virtual machine instead. There are a few good free software programs to do this. VirtualBox used to be a good option. It’s a free and harmless way to dive into Linux.
Linux Is Only Free if You Don’t Value Your Time
This one is my favorite.
My co-workers SSD failed, and he was out most of the day. My SSD failed, and I was back up and running in about 10 minutes.
I don’t know… Majonging?
There’s still a few edge cases that Flatpak is not great for. The Flatpak version of Kdenlive video editor can’t see Whisper, which it uses to generate subtitles. The Appimage and native builds work flawlessly.
I’m assuming these problems will be addressed eventually but it takes time.
I always recommend older (2-3 years behind) thinkpads and Dell latitudes. Most people don’t need latest and greatest, far more bang for you buck, and they’re relatively easy to repair.
Plus, it doesn’t hurt to keep a perfectly good machine out of a landfill.
GIMP = Image Editing
Krita = Drawing and Painting
Just gotta buy some carbon credit and then you can burn as much oil as you want.

Windows 2000 was end of life and XP looked like crap.
If that doesn’t work tell them blackberry.
Their static website hosting is probably the best in the business. We seriously need some competition though.
