No need, they’ve already stopped receiving macOS updates
Comment on Top Apple analyst says MacBook demand has fallen 'significantly'
profoundninja@sh.itjust.works 8 months agoThey’re definitely going to overheating or slow older Mac’s with the next OS update while adding very little.

I… what? No. This is patently incorrect and can be disproven with a simple google search. I know it’s cool to hate apple, but misinformation is never cool. Idk where you got this information, but it’s not true.

That isn’t how Apple handles it. Macbook models have a finite update support window. They will receive security updates after that window closes but no longer get major MacOS versions. That is how they incentivise upgrades.

At max usage, an m1 has a hard time overheating. The hardware is really good this time, and the previous overheating was due to insufficient cooling hardware.
Even if apple adds features that run the cpu/gpu/neural cores as hard as possible, overheating is not really on the table the same way it was on x86 macbooks.
