I would never use a pre 2020 macbook. But now I have a m3 MBP and its so nice to not have a laptop trying to melt itself 24/7. It has a better cpu then any of my intel machines. The memory management is godly. The battery life is like 9-12 hours including me running R pipelines which take like 6 gb ram. Compilation is also pretty fast vs the linux HPC I ssh into (lots of R packages are just c/c++ and recompile with every update). I had to install windows on my intel laptop because the GPU was frying (I was getting tons of graphical issues which went away when I installed linux) due to the win11 bloat causing the fans to run 24/7.

I told myself like a year ago I would never buy a macbook again after an awful experience with a 2013 air but holy fuck is Apple Silicon a godsend. The switch from intel to ARM is the biggest glowup in mainstream tech imo
