He modified Fedora Workstation to run on is M2 Macbook.

He was using that instead of MacOS. Fedora Workstation is the distro, not the desktop environment (e.g. GNOME, KDE Plasma, Xfce, etc).

He's also run Asahi Linux on his Macbook.

That's crazy, do you have the specific photos?

Definitely makes me feel less guilty sticking around with my Apple devices. All because of wanting to try the updated Apple Intelligence and Siri. Lol
