butterfly keyboard

Yeah, it sucks. To be fair, I hated their keyboards before and after the butterfly keyboard nonsense, I much prefer the deeper keyboard travel of my Thinkpad.

accidentally made the display cable too short

Eh, I think that’s overblown. I have a 2019 Intel Mac for work, and nobody in my office has had that problem, and we’ve all had our laptops for 3-4 years. Our company replacement cycle is 4 years, and it’s looking like I’m not going to have that problem at all.

I’m not saying it doesn’t happen, I’m just saying that I haven’t experienced it in our work setting. I certainly wouldn’t buy one for my personal computer because I expect more than 4 years of life from it (I’m typing this on my E495 from 5 years ago, and I plan to keep it for a couple more years).

USB C on their phones

What does that have to do with their laptops? Same with the iPad.

My coworkers have M-series laptops for work, and they’re way nicer than my Intel mac in terms of performance (>4x faster running our test suite and building Docker containers), battery life, and other features (they have the magnetic power port again). I’d never buy one because it doesn’t run Linux properly and I hate the Apple ecosystem, but the M-series chips are quite nice.
