If someone wants to read more about why the OpenSUSE Tumbleweed Team decided on using systemd-boot instead of grub-bls (because the linked Blog-post does not give any information) you can their explanation here: https://lists.opensuse.org/archives/list/factory@lists.opensuse.org/thread/4ZPQU7PV3ODS7WELADHE7F3SVBQDFIOP/
Even for M1 MacBooks Asahi does not support things like Thunderbolt, DP Alt Mode, Fingerprint Reader, etc. Also Power management is still a problem because Apple doing things differently then other ARM devices. https://asahilinux.org/docs/platform/feature-support/m1/
If I am Buying a 2000€+ Laptop I want everything to work. Not flawlessly, but at least working. And Asahi is not there. That’s what I mean with “not suitable as a daily driver”. If this is good enough for someone, thats fine. I am happy for them and they should enjoy their device. But most other people buying such laptops would not be happy.
