  • According to https://github.com/AsahiLinux/docs/wiki/Feature-Support there's audio support for everything except the models introduced so far this year, using the 3.5mm output. The built-in speakers are still disabled by default while they work on the software required to drive them at reasonable loudness without burning them out. It's not clear to me whether audio over HDMI works for the models where they already have HDMI support.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • hid-apple-patched

    Allows to swap the Fn key and left Control key and other tweaks on Macbook Pro and Apple keyboards in GNU/Linux

  • (CtrlFn⊞AltSpaceAlt⊞), except for the double-swapped right-option which acts as Win instead of the expected Ctrl.

    There is a `rightalt_as_rightctrl` patch[2 which doesn't work with Asahi yet, but there's plans to upstream it. However, marcan was planning to make some massive changes in the apple-hid driver, so it might take a while.
