What Hacker News says
3 sourcesYes, with major tradeoffs. Asahi Linux is an amazing project, but they have not yet figured out how to get anywhere close to a Mac's power efficiency when it is running MacOS. For example, you will lose a lot of battery life[0][1] with the lid closed, whereas on MacOS you lose pretty much nothing.
Also, note that thunderbolt not yet supported[2].

In M5 MacBook ProMy biggest blockers to switching to Asahi were mic and camera support, and video out (hdmi or usb c). Once all that was supported, I immediately switched over and it felt great to finally be running Linux again. But, it seems I totally glanced over the battery, battery performance is not great at all on Asahi, and unfortunately I'm back in macos again waiting for this issue to be resolved: https://github.com/AsahiLinux/linux/issues/262
Amazing work so far everyone!
