Another developer has dropped out of Asahi Linux, the project to get Linux up and running on Apple silicon.
On Tuesday, a developer going by "Asahi Lina" announced she would be pausing work on Apple GPU drivers indefinitely. Asahi Lina posted on Bluesky: "I no longer feel safe working on Linux GPU drivers or the Linux graphics ecosystem."
The Asahi Linux project added the developer to the "Past major contributors" list and described Lina as a "GPU kernel sourceress."
