If you are focused on arm infrastructure for linux, you can do a lot better than a Mac mini m1, they are limited to 16GB of RAM and booting Linux is experimental at best.
Check out something like the solidrun honeycomb lx2 which can take 2 32G sodimms: https://shop.solid-run.com/product/SRLX216S00D00GE064H08CH/ https://shop.solid-run.com/product/SRLX216S00D00GE064H08CH/
Designed for linux out of the box, and you can even run VMware esxi for arm and go wild with vms.
