Popped my Mac Cherry with an M2 earlier this year and I'm very happy with the purchase.

I switched just because of the difference the chipset makes. I've been running windows for gaming and Linux for personal shit forever - I'm not generally a fan of Apple and their walled garden business mod. But the MacBook pro with the m2 will run my dev environments and teams meetings from 8-5 all day on battery and still has a good 30-40% left at the end of the day. It's not even competitive right now unfortunately, since I work remote I like to float around and work from different places and not having to worry about charging is a game changer.
