And here I am running Linux on M1 Macbook. Graphical interface is superior, native docker support is superior, development experience is superior, backups for sure are superior than Time Machine. For work purposes online office on the web is sufficient. It is not for everyone (like photographers), but for software developers it works very nicely.
I question the native docker support is superior. On a mac I can run linux/amd64 docker containers at near native speed with Rosetta 2 for Linux, this is something that you just cannot do (at the moment) on Linux running on Apple Silicon.
I'm an Arch guy, but for the M1 I am using the official Asahi Linux distro which is based on Fedora. Documentation and information about compatibility can be found on their site: https://asahilinux.org/
I previously used the Arch based Asahi distro when it was official, but Arch on ARM is a 3rd party project and it was not very well maintained and lacked some packages, so they switched. Fedora could also be considered more stable and better supported. But there are Ubuntu, Debian versions for Asahi if you prefer those.
