Thank you for taking time for a detailed review!

I’m not having an Apple Silicon machine at the moment, but I’m eyeing one. Mostly to use Linux. I’m not in real need here (still running an Intel model with Linux, which is plenty for me right now, including okayish battery life). But I think of getting one to play around either this year, or early next year. Initially I thought of waiting for M1 models to be phased out of the macOS support and get one then. Which would make them an ideal Linux laptop in my book, as the price would drop significantly, while providing outstanding value. But I think I’d get at least one earlier.
