Comment on Apple keeps flogging 8GB of RAM for its Mac computers but it's still a dead horse
Shadywack@lemmy.world 2 months agoA weeklong battery life, efficient cores, rapid response time, and great software environment make it a great choice…at 16GB for my needs. I will not recommend 8GB to any user at all going forward. It’s marketing malarkey with no future proofing, degrading the viable longevity of the machine.
There’s no conversation to continue. Glass is glass, and 8GB is 8GB, as well as being a joke.

If it’s great for your needs, the base model isn’t for you. You can stream video with have 30 tabs open in Safari and only use 4.6GB of UM on an M1 Mac. I just verified for you.

That’s on my M1 Mac Mini that I use as a server. I use an M2 with 16GB of UM for FCP and Logic Pro.
