The battery life on my MacBook M1 Max is better than the machine it replaced but nothing to write home about. I bought my wife an M4 MacBook Air and honestly she will misplace her charging cord for days because she didn’t need it. It’s remarkable. For most devs, a powerful Linux desktop (or cloud server) and a MacBook Air is a very powerful combination.
To be fair to macOS, it’s still Unix-based, which at least makes it less miserable for development than Windows.
I would still go for Linux any time, though.
That and i hear macbook battery life is absolute black magic fuckery
