Framework 13 AMD 7040 Series: A Developer's First Impressions
I'm not sure they appeal to the same group of users. macOS is IMNHO much worse than GNU/Linux with a proper window manager, much less comfortable to use with multiple desktops, and forces the use of a mouse/trackpad way too much.[1]
The m2 can run Linux - but external display support is probably a long way off.
So for the user wanting to run Linux - m2 isn't really viable - unless you actually work on it with just the built-in screen - for me that doesn't work ergonomically.
I have the m2 - it's not terrible - I suspect I'd prefer one of these.
[1] Rectangle and AutoRaise helps a lot, making the UX livable:

New Mac user -- Is there a good way to allow click-through on all applications yet? This is my main gripe with macOS, everything else is really amazing.
There used to be third-party tools to enable focus-follows-mouse and universal clickthrough, but I'm not sure any still exist for recent OS versions. Seems like it should be possible though. Maybe AutoRaise can do what you want? Looks like you'd need to compile it yourself with custom flags though. See https://stackoverflow.com/questions/67258537/focus-follows-mouse-on-macos

[HELP] "Mouse Over" on web elements even when focus is on another windows (Possible in macOS?)
*PS* I have already tried AutoRaise (https://github.com/sbmpost/AutoRaise). But, basically what it does is: Change FOCUS on mouse hover. That's NOT what I need.

Make Mac usable for Linux user
AutoRaise for focus-follow-mouse. I don't want auto raise, so that is disabled https://github.com/sbmpost/AutoRaise

Annoying unnecessary click
People discussing this a long time ago (stackexchange) mention a project called AutoRaise. No idea if it still works.

MacBook Pro M1: Select context across monitors/windows without mouse click
I don’t think there is a setting in built (happy to be corrected). Had stumbled upon this sometime back. Check it out. https://github.com/sbmpost/AutoRaise

Select context across monitors/windows without mouse click
Install AutoRaise or something similar that allows you to focus on windows just by moving your cursor over them or hovering over them while holding a modifier key.

Mac Studio M2 and 8k screen
Just wanted to put in a plug for the MonitorControl app. I just installed it, and it enables brightness control for the QN700B from Apple's keyboard. So great not to have to pull up any Samsung menus to adjust it.

MacMini keeps adjusting Saturation / Brightness...
