I'm looking to pick up an old M1 macbook from my work if I can slap linux on it and turn it into a usable laptop. Its the A2338

I'm most worried about hardware support and running into constant wifi, keyboard and software bugs.

Does anyone have experience using this class of device with linux?

is the HDR display working? I think I might not get it since it sounds like a lot of trouble. There are 2019 intel macbooks that might make a better linux laptop

Currently no HDR and looks like 60hz is the maximum refresh rate
