I don’t see the point, very few people who buy this device for Apple will ever want to do this and we definitely shiuldn’t promote that piece of garbage, a single look at the iFixit score or a teardown video tells everything you have to know!
I don’t like Apple products either but the silicon Macbooks are the best laptops in the market, there just isn’t much competition. Every other company threw in the towel and make weaker laptops with half as much battery life due to x86 in the same pricepoint. Not to mention the screen and touchpad are usually worse.
I won’t deny that, they got the edge in terms of ARM CPUs but that doesn’t make those the best Laptops on the market, it’s literal EWaste and judging from Apples history that thing probably has a few desing flaws that will lead to breakage with no coverage from their site too. If you ask me you just got your priorities wrong if you buy one of those but I am one of those privacy freaks too so call me crazy if you want.
I mean, it’s ultimately a matter of opinion as to what makes a laptop the “best” on the market, but it seems like a serious stretch to call them ewaste. I’ve never personally owned an Apple product in my life, but they make some really solid hardware even if it’s sold at a premium.
The majore issues are, even more moves to restrict repairability on purpose than already common in the industry, refusal to pay for mistakes till lawsuites force them to do so and a history of majore desing flaws in countless products. Louis Rossman dose a good job at showing that, ewaste is a little harsh but I think it’s unfortunately very much appropriate in this case, just my opinion tho.
I agree with you, Apple shouldn’t be supported in any way and I think of them as e-waste as well - their repairability is a joke.
But before I knew anything about GNU/Linux I bought a Microsoft Surface Book 2. A friend introduced me to Linux and the project linux-surface convinced me to get rid of every Microsoft software I had.
Maybe Asahi will do the same for other people.
