the only cool thing that it has over a Mac would probably be it's GPU, but in the event you get Linux running on that thang you'd probably run into driver issues because The Demon Terrorist Organisation known as NVIDIA made the chip
also the novelty of it being ARM is now kinda void because M1 Macs now exist that can run full Linux, back when the switch came out there wasn't as many "mid tier-ish" ARM hardware.
i understand it's not the same thing but if i get a device i wanna fuck with it (like i intentionally got a launch switch for homebrew) and why would i get something locked down when the same form factor in standard hardware exists
it's kind of cool that nintendo are heading towards "hey we need good hardware actually" approach instead of recycling 10 year old android hardware (and ~15 year old hardware before that) and so you can actually play games like elden ring on it, but i'm still not interested in getting one since the handheld PC market is getting really good now
