I still use a little M1 Air as a daily driver, but I have some of the newer hardware for work, and now I want to upgrade to that stuff. The newer Apple Silicon is kind of nutty.
Still though, for a 6-year-old machine, it’s still perfectly fine for day-to-day stuff. I only notice the crunch when I throw some of my processor intensive software development toys at it. The latest dev beta of MacOS 27 even runs great on it.
Apple does a lot of shitty stuff, but their silicon game has been solid.
