I agree, that's another topic: what is the best hardware/linux distro combo out there? :-)
I really like the hardware of my Macbook, but I wish I could use just another OS.

I heard about a Sonoma bug, didn't run into it but many others did. Just be aware of that one. I would follow people on this mastodon for updates: https://social.treehouse.systems/@marcan
Once you're running keep doing
sudo dnf --refresh upgrade for updates.Browsers: Firefox ships with the OS, Brave crashes (but Brave Nightly works) and Chromium works too. Not Mullvad Browser and no Tor Browser unfortunately. I would need to check if they can be compiled from source on aarch64.
