• Asahi Linux now supports M3-series Macs

    The Asahi Linux project has announced that support
    for Apple's M3-series chips has been added to the Asahi installer.

    Linux support for M3 series SoCs and the machines powered by them is now in a state where almost everything supported on the M1 and M2 series
    machines just works. This includes the webcam, internal microphones, USB (up to the hardware limit of USB 3 10 Gb/s), hardware accelerated video decoding including support for AV1, WiFi, Bluetooth, and much more! The
    only major exceptions remain full DCP support and the GPU, which we will have more news on in the coming
    months. Do not expect performant or power-efficient 3D acceleration
    right now.

    See the blog post for other current limitations of M3 support.
