> just like macOS has Can you please direct me to where this is possible in MacOS? I can't see any option to configure a charging cap except some "smart" optio

  It's not possible to set a hard limit in macOS without third party utility like AlDente [1]. I was referring to the built-in "Optimised battery charging" feature. When this is active and has decided it will cap charging at 80% [2], you get a "charge to full now" option in the battery menu. [1] https://apphousekitchen.com https://apphousekitchen.com [2] I do agree that this feature sucks and rarely actually works, unless you have a very predictable charging schedule.

    I leave my laptop plugged in 95% of the time so in practice this caps it at 80% (helpful). I suspect quite a few people do that so it probably is net-good overall, but agree it doesn’t work well if you’re moving around a lot.
