Best kernel modules and general setup for a 2017 MacBook Pro?
You don't compile the kernel from scratch to solve this problem normally, or should I say ideally, unless you're referring to aunali1/linux-mbp-arch.
-
Which non-stock kernel do you use? (if any)
I have a macbook with the T2 security chip, so a few patches are needed for most of the hardware: https://github.com/aunali1/linux-mbp-arch I dunno if there are many other computers like this where you need patches for hardware compatibility.
-
Upstream integration?
But when I look at the patches to support T2 Macs, most of them haven't even once been submitted to the Linux Kernel Mailing List for review (or am I missing some mail archive?)

Boot Macbook to USB Linux
The specific display issue you’ve described there is probably the one fixed by https://github.com/aunali1/linux-mbp-arch/blob/master/2001-drm-amd-display-Force-link_rate-as-LINK_RATE_RBR2-fo.patch (this patch is in mbp-fedora)

Linux on 2019 Macbook air
You need this kernel patch to prevent that overscan. Have a look at https://wiki.t2linux.org for how to get that without compiling the entire kernel.

Debian 11 on T2 macs
Does anyone happen to have info on how I might get things up and running? I have tried googling, but not finding much specific to Debian. What I have found points to MacBook Bridge/T2 Linux Driver, but my undersanding this is in the kernel from 5.7. Also found linux-mbp-arch but that is specific to arch, and wouldn't work on Debian yeah? Or could I run those patches against something to get a Debian compatible kernel?

Arch Linux on iMac 2019
I once installed Arch on a MacBookPro15,1 (2019). It worked but I was mainly experimenting with it rather than actually using it. I had to use a custom kernel https://github.com/aunali1/linux-mbp-arch but I think this is MacBook specific. WiFi, the touchbar and the Intel iGPU are among the things that caused me the most headache. Also, the keyboard and mouse don't work without the custom kernel. But I managed to get the system to work overall (incl. WiFi) and most of those issues don't affect iMacs, I guess.

No wonder more people don’t use Linux, trying to find a way to download this OS is impossible…
I will be assuming that you downloaded v20.04-5.17.1-1 from https://github.com/marcosfad/mbp-ubuntu/releases/tag/v20.04-5.17.1-1

Installing Ubuntu to Mac vs Installing to a virtual machine, difference?
Hey all, I'm a bit new to Linux and want to learn about this new world as many different may be here. I have a Macbook Pro 2019 16in (Touchbar) and I want to install Ubuntu (I have 22.04 downloaded at this time). I found these instructions on installing Ubuntu to my similar model of laptop https://github.com/marcosfad/mbp-ubuntu. I saw another thread on an apple page and they suggested just installing Ubuntu on a VM instead for stability. I'm wondering what the difference would be for installing it on a VM vs my computer. Does anybody know of the benefits or consequences of this?

How secure would it be to use whonix on Ubuntu as a dual boot on Mac?
I’m wondering if using this guide to dualboot a specific patched version of Ubuntu to work on the newer Mac model I have would be safe security wise with using whonix? Or if I should just use a different machine and get qubes

Pop OS on 2020 Mac Mini?
I had all sorts of issues running every single popular distro (at least in my opinion) like Arch, Debian, Fedora, Ubuntu, Manjaro, Pop, and even FreeBSD but I had 0 luck. Finally, I tried this iso with the patches included but no luck with WiFi.
