Imo spending 20k for upgrading memory is a complete waste for M1. Difference is minuscule in synthetic benchmarks and forget to see a real world performance difference.

Just Apple store. I find it hard to come by even in retail stores.
If possible, splurge on it. Does make a difference on heavy workload, plus less disk usage for swap, better disk life.
Posting this video because never seen such cool laptop stand...That is the only reason.
Guys is it okay to use macbook plugged in all the time? Will it damage the battery? what are the best battery health preserving measures?
I use it plugged in all the time. The charger should be intelligent enough to manage it.
There’s a great video on better health conservation by Created Tech on YouTube. Pretty detailed.

My 2012 model was plugged in for about five years until the battery started swelling. I replaced the battery with a third party one and it's been plugged in for the last four years without any issues so far.
Newer models have far better battery management.
I have had my MBA plugged in about 50% of the time for the last 1 year.
The cycle count is 50 and the battery health is 99%
With the Mac OS Monetary update, I see freeze in the welcome/login screen in my Mac Mini M1.
It’s connected to Logitech wireless KB & Mouse.
The freeze happens when the Mac Mini goes into sleep mode and wakes up on a key click, wakes up on the login screen. I cannot type or use the mouse cursor at this point.
The only way out, is to wait at the frozen Lock Screen for about a minute for the screen to go off and hit a key to wake to screen again, at this point it’s all fine and back to normal.
Anyone else noticed this?

Still happy with Big Sur since fews apps and features are incompatible, tried MAC OS Monetary and reverted to Big Sur
Have been having this issue where dirt and dust gets into the back of my screen (I wanna say backlight but I am afraid I could be wrong.) Anyone else has this issue? Bothers me when I try reading something on a whte webpage. It's like two dirt particles (one last week and now two) are stuck behind. How do I go from here?
have the same issue which I have observed couple of days back, i was wondering what on the earth is this ? i first though it was an insect
need to check with Apple guys on this
how to revert to previous os(big sur)? is there any option like that like on windows?
If you are facing pixelated text issue when a M1 Mac is connected to external monitor (non 4k monitors) there is a work around now using a 3rd party app.
