    I don’t think Apple doing typical hostile anti-user Apple shit is a “to be fair” moment.

      Is moving to ARM architecture anti-user? They easily accomplished the (correct me if I’m wrong) best energy efficiency between all available laptops in the market. Granted, it was never marketed for gaming.

        Yes it’s anti-user because

        1: they seem to have broken compatibility with a lot of existing software

        2: they just use the efficiency improvements to make shit thinner.

          Okay, so

          1. Rosetta 2 largely fixed that, for whereever it was feasible to fix. It came out as soon as ARM Macbooks did.

          2. They actually made their shit thicker. The M1 Pro/Max MBP is thicker than the 2016+ Intel ones were.

          I had an M1 Air, the battery lasted like 20 hours. Most I’ve gotten off any non-Apple laptop has been 6-7.
