How well does it perform? I have a MacBook Air 2013 that I run Arch on but I miss all the apple ecosystem stuff. I can’t imagine it runs as well as Linux which runs great.
- maxxam 3y agoWorks pretty well for me on a 2012 Mac mini. It’s maxed out though with i7 and 16GB. I don’t feel performances are worst than with the latest official macOS version.
- frereubu 3y agoIt's pretty seamless. There are occasional small lags when starting apps, and the fans do spin up when playing Minecraft Java edition and there are lots of creatures nearby (we also had to kill off a bunch to stop it lagging really badly when there were something like 200 creatures of a type that follow you about), but it feels like it's got a good few years in it yet. Apple apps like Photos and Mail etc feel pretty responsive. For reference the Air has a 1.4GHz Dul-Core Intel Core i5, 4GB of 1600 MHz DDR3 RAM and Intel HD Graphics 5000 1536MB. I've got an M1 Max Macbook Pro with 64GB of memory, so it's up against some tough competition!
