Depends on your desktop UI. If you install something like Gnome (as I did with Asahi Linux today on an M3 Air) the animated transitions don’t work. You just get a short frozen period and then it cuts straight to the final state. I could try installing a more barebones DE which has no need for animations.

Without 3D accl basic web browsing can sort of suck, QubesOS has software only rendering and you can really feel it.
