Let's be real here, the vast, vast majority of Apple customers are never installing Asahi on their machine. Like, ever.

- jillesvangurp 3y agoAgain, you are misunderstanding me. Asahi Linux is doing a lot of hard work and open sourcing that. That in turn enables porting back some of that software to OSX. Steam on Mac so far runs without proton so it can't run a lot of things. The people developing Asahi Linux are doing a lot of hard work figuring out all the low level details of how the hardware platform works. The resulting software could be adapted to run inside of OS X. The hard part would be reverse engineering the hardware. Which is exactly what they are doing. And with the wide distribution of macs, it's obviously attractive for Valve and game studios to target that platform. Apple is responding to that threat by offering game studios an alternative.
