I ran Asahi on an 8/256GB M1 mini for a few months as my primary work machine. Worked perfectly fine, besides the lack of a second screen. Sounds like they've finally cracked that though, and are preparing to release the upgrade to general users.

Obviously, software is a little more patchy, but I didn't truly struggle to fill my needs. Amusingly, I discovered that Mixxx, the DJ software works well on it.

Might put Asahi back on it and use it as my Home Assistant machine, freeing up some processing power from the poor 2014 Mac mini that I'm currently using (with Mint) as my general purpose home server.
