the market for M2/3 chip machines is not those with M1s but those people who are still on the Intel machines. People don't usually replace their MacBooks annually. Most people keep them for several years.

The "obsolete" designation is only for models that are several years old and it just means that they will no longer get software updates. You are free to keep using them as long as you like. No one is expecting you to buy a new la

People with astigmatism often find that light text against a dark background end up looking blurry. I don’t think that dark mode is any more beneficial than light mode. I don’t like living in a dim dark room just so that dark mode looks rea
