The funny thing is that it's currently easier to run linux on M-powered Apple devices than Qualcomm powered Windows devices. My 8cx Gen2 powered Dell Inspirion is a blackhole of linux support where Gen1 and Gen3 seem supported but Gen2 has a different device tree breaking linux support. Hell I can't even reformat it with a fresh copy of Win11 for ARM because it isn't offered. The only way to download windows for ARM is a virtual machine file for windows insiders. Then use third party tools to crack that open and extract the OS.
