No, you can opt to login with your AppleID instead of a machine specific password. I never would, but that is an option.

- mlindner 5y agoOh really, they must have added that recently. But I didn't even see it as an option when I bought this M1 mac. It must have been buried somewhere.
- dev_tty01 5y agoYeah, I don't remember when it was added and I think the interface to that option has changed over time. There is also an option (SysPref->Users) to authenticate a Mac password change with your AppleID. Different option but the net effect is the same.
