These new ARM chips are almost perfect, the only bad part is... ARM.

Most backend devs these days use Docker, and serious Docker usage on M1/M2 macs isn't really possible due to bugs and super slow performance.

I was doing benchmarks and for our workloads images would build several times slower as well as our test suites.

We had many devs in our company buy the shiny macbooks only having to return them due to incompatibilities with Docker.

My computer journey was Windows -> Linux -> Macos, now more than decade later I am returning back to Windows, because WSL is a total blessing.
