unpopular opinion probably but macbooks are way too overpriced considering a gaming laptop gives you so much more for like half the price of a mac 😭 my laptop is lenovo ideapad gaming 3, amd ryzen 5 nvidia gtx 1650ti 8gm ram and over 3 years later it is still a beast
Comments
1. does NOT have a discrete nvidia graphics card
2. has a more than adequate CPU but nothing too overkill that it struggles with temps
3. doesn't have horrible cooling (looking at you, XPS 15)
If you only need to do simple tasks you shouldn't be getting a laptop with good hardware, save it for the desktop

I want to drop with friends in HD2 or DIV, and that MacBook isn't gonna cut it.
It's really just get the machine that does the job you need.
If I’m doing my normal workload of developing Node apps, I get about 2 hours, maybe 2.5.
I have a Mac for work and a tower PC for gaming.
I feel like Intel laptop are kind of like sporks. Yes, in a bind you can use it, but proper spoons and proper forks are always better.
But I get that, the MBA M3 is on sale for 5,199 PLN in Poland, that's $1,266 ($1,029 + VAT).
