they make a big show to say that macs are supported, but in reality only x86 macs are supported, M1/M2 are not.

They hide this in the required specs, 2 clicks after the main announcement. Pretty misleading given that Apple currently sells 2 non M1/M2 macs: an i5 Mac Mini and the Mac Pro (cheese grater).

This is a product to revive old devices that have aged badly or stopped getting updates.

Why would anyone run chromeOS on a recent MacBook? You'd make a good buck selling that Apple silicon device and getting an old 2010s device.
