Would anyone knows if asahi is ready to be a daily driver on the m1 sir tet? How is the battery life against stock macos?

For me, it has been ready as a daily driver for more than a year. Battery life is shorter than macos but still long enough that I don't have to think about it (which I can't say about any x86 laptops, even when they use iGPUs).

The notable missing features are external displays (an experimental kernel branch is publicly available though) and the fingerprint sensor. That's about it, though. Given the amount of polish combined with the hardware, it's arguably the most polished Linux laptop experience you'll get.

		`sudo cpupower frequency-set -g conservative` might help a bit with battery life.

		Depends A LOT on what exactly you need for day to day usage. E.g. some have higher requirements than others.
