I would expect the people already daily-driving ARM Linux laptops with GPUs that run slower than software rendering on M1s to be perfectly happy with the current state of affairs. This is not to say GPU support is a long way away; it isn't. > and that we may well have an M2 on store shelves before you've even got M1 support to a usable point. You're assuming M2 will take another year. M1 Pro and Max took a week or so to bring to near feature parity, and M1 Ultra will probably take ~1 day. We aren't starting from scratch for every new chip. I'm not saying everyone will be happy daily driving a laptop with no GPU (I wouldn't, not as my main machine). I'm saying some people will be (I would, as a carry around laptop for browsing and SSH).
