@PlasticPope Hi,
I own a MBAir 2015, too.
Since 01/2024 I'm running LinuxMint on it. (LM22.1)
It works like a charm, nearly out of the box.
After installation, you just have to load the Broadcom Wifi-Drivers.
This can be done easily under Drivers in the menu.
A second thing is the webcam... you have to build and install an additional driver for that.
Further info therefore: github.com/patjak/facetimehd/w…
Ah brilliant thanks so much! Yes luckily was able to install the broadcom drivers from the bootable usb. Then wifi was all good. I never use the webcam other than my work macbook for meetings. So I’m not too phased. But thanks for the heads up! :-)
