Kidding aside, unless you’re looking to play games, most apps have either ported to Apple Silicon, or have a Beta of their port that is releasing soon. I think the M1 Pro/Max release was the kick in the pants that companies/projects like Adobe, Unity, Unreal and Blender needed in order to go “OK yeah, professionals use these, time to get porting”.
(I know some of these betas preceded the release of these laptops, but for a few months before these laptops came out it was clear they were going to be nuts)
All I'm saying is this article is clickbait because it frames these comparisons in the dumbest way possible as if to say 1 processor is better than the other, with no explanation that these are not 1-to-1 comparisons. It is a complete lie by omission.
