And MacOS does? Is this some Apple Silicon humble brag? Cuz that's "Apple doesn't allow developers and enthusiasts to do their thing on their own computer that they purchased" not "Linux doesn't run on my machine".

Apple definitely allows it, but as far as I know Linux doesn’t support it yet. (turn off SIP, couple other things related to the boot process I think)

OP's point stands. You assigning them with "humblebrag" intentions is on you. It's not unreasonable to think that many people have M1s now, and it will certainly increase over time.

Not even Apple silicon. Linux is not compatible with MBPs since the touchbar models. More because of "Apple doesn't care you want this" (wifi firmware is known-broken) rather than disallowing.

Why wouldn’t Apple allow Linux to run on their ARM Macs? They’ve allowed any compatible OS to run on Intel and PPC Macs. The only thing that’s changed is that they don’t currently offer a first party multi-boot solution. But they didn’t even offer one for Windows on Intel until community solutions were relatively stable and popular, and afaik they never offered one for Linux.
