Can someone enumerate these problems? I’ve been on an M1 for almost 2yrs and I’m apparently missing out on what makes it a bad experience.

Some X86 binaries do not run on M1, big deal in ERP. My collages spend like two weeks trying to emulate some older server.

It has little RAM, small disk... so you depend on cloud for build. No Nvidia GPU for CUDA... Some USB externals do not work...

Depends on which model you get and how you configure it. You can easily get up to 96GB of RAM and 8TB of SSD, if that's what you really want. It's damn bloody expensive to do that, but the possibility is there.

So, you can't legitimately say that the memory is always low and the disk is always small. That's just a configuration thing. If you don't configure it right, then I don't hold out much sympathy for you.
