There’s Asahi linux for M1 but the dev that runs it is a bit of a nutter. Also apple software just works best with its hardware (until the planned obsolesence of your hardware happens and suddenly nothing works).
There are a few tools like lima that let you play around with Ubuntu from macOS if you are still curious. Also an official one from Canonical (company behind Ubuntu linux) whose name I forget now that does a similar thing. Essentially you get a user friendly linux VM to play around with.
Wouldn’t recommend linux on a mac unless it’s an old model (like ~2012)
M1 not old enough? I can already feel Apple trying to kill it.

Well that saves me a bit of work for now then. I’ve got all my old phones/ipads though so perhaps it’s time to try tinkering with things there

Edit: Canonical VM is called Multipass
