At last! So happy to see this thread. So happy to have a disussion on this topic without 'why, do you want to do that?' BS...

Have you guys got a stable OS after the pruning? ie., is all the 'leave-it-alone' BS just scareware because they lack the skills then?
I ask because I have a macbook for asahi linux but I upgraded to an m4 pro and didn't realize asahi isn't available for M4 yet, do'h! Being from the arch world, these things are super bloated to me. Happy to tear through the OS and prune however, the macbook -unlike my linux machines- is for dev work whilst traveling so needs to be stable :D
