Asahi Linux is a project to support Linux on post-2020 Apple computers (that is, those that use Apple Silicon). It is taking a while to complete, given that Apple Silicon is an "entirely undocumented platform".
I want to know when I'll be able to take a Zoom call, with or without headphones, on a 2023 14-inch MacBook Pro using an M3 chip (not M3 Pro or M3 Max). Specifically, I'll say this can happen when the following features are all listed as supported on the relevant wiki page:
Installer
Devicetree
Main display
Keyboard
Touchpad
WiFi
3.5mm jack
Speakers
Microphones
Webcam
"Supported" means not a WIP: I'll count it as supported if it's listed as asahi-edge, linux-asahi, or upstreamed on the current wiki page. If the wiki page goes down, I'll do my best to ascertain whether developers are representing the features as usable. I'll only count features as "listed as supported" if it's displayed on the relevant website for >=24 contiguous hours (so an accidental error quickly reversed wouldn't count).
All dates are in Pacific Time. The question is which date range contains the end of the first 24-hour period when all these features are supported.
1,000Update on M3 and Asahi: Due to a bunch of reasons, I think we're going to be focusing on existing M1 and M2 series chips for a little while, so M3 support will probably be delayed (at least from my side).

I definitely expect M3 work to move forward this year, but I won't be prioritizing it over the other stuff at least personally. We are ticking off a lot of tasks off for M1/M2 though, so this is a finite issue.
Their Mastodon seems to be the main way they communicate about updates: https://social.treehouse.systems/@AsahiLinux
