I've never met someone before that cares about cpu fan noise. Genuinely. It never bothers me so I have never thought about it. Perhaps also because my workflow involves playing music when I work to make me more productive.

As someone who records lots of videos it is quite frustrating. The less noise the better.

My MacBooks have generally been quiet, but not silent. Having lived with the M1 MacBook Air since it came out, I _never_ want to go back to a fan. Silence is a luxury.

They likely used apple for a long time before this, and they had a ton of fan noise. So likely wasn't an issue previously.

Getting a noise less and fast laptop is a good improvement. It's like going from a fossil car to an electric one. So much less noise and vibrations. The noise is acceptable but it's annoying to go back.

As someone who bikes, electric cars make a lot of noise still when they're not going under 10km/hr.

The pre-M1 MacBook Air fan kicks in a lot and produces a lot of noise compared to other laptops IMO.
