Fanless linux laptop
Fanless linux laptop
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.

I use asahi on a MacBook air, and love it. The battery life on sleep mode has been improving but it's nowhere near the voodoo Apple does to MacOs. I recently installed Linux on my Asus machine and found the process and community to be really helpful, so maybe that's an option for you. Check out https://asus-linux.org/
My ryzen laptop uses around 10% per day in sleep mode with linux 6.8 kernel
That's awesome. My Asus uses a bit more I think but I never measured it. The MacBook air used to die in one day in sleep mode and now it'll last almost two days, so progress!
