I’m looking for an Apple MacBook Air M2 alternative that could run Linux.

I need something fanless, super lightweight with very long battery life. The only apps I use are Shotcut video editor, Chrome and Firefox.

Any advice?

Is it a good idea to get a MacBook Air m2 and use something like Asahi Linux or should I wait for arm linux laptops to become available.

    the Surface Go tablets and some of the older Surface pros are fanless but you will have nowhere near the performance of a M1/2 air

      I have a Surface Go 1 and I’m perfectly happy except for some mouse/bluetooth issues.

      It’s not powerful but it works perfectly for the browsing or writing that I’m doing.
