Look, mate, Apple will betray you at every possible turn. The prices they charge don't justify the products they sell, and you incur risks by merely using their products which fail after only a few years and you're not allowed to repair. Literally every reason you would purchase a mac, you would be better off to go with Linux or Windows instead. Even if you like the efficiency of the apple ARM processors, which they hold the advantage in only via anticompetitive market practices, their low lifespan doesn't seem to justify the cost. Generally they're built to last about 7 years, due to California regulations, but they experience major slowdowns and failures after about 2 or 3.
And the entire time: you'll funneling money into sweatshop operations.
