I will absolutely not miss the Intel days. The last several years have been abysmal. Having to follow along with Intel’s roadmap actually made some product releases objectively worse than their predecessors. I was so disgusted with the 2017 series of MacBook Pros I was convinced I’d never buy another Apple desktop or laptop. The move to Apple Silicon fixed that. I’ve since picked up a new 16” MacBook Pro and the Mac Studio.
Now we just need them to cleanup MacOS itself. Having been daily driving the Sonoma beta, it looks like they’re on a good path on that front as well.
