And then you install the very first version of a new OS which has been designed primarily for the Apple M1 SOC.
Source? I don't think it's designed primarily for M1, and the convenience it brings (ie. for auto-switching Airpods between phone/mac) is really nice. Yeah the icons/looks are a little bit weird at first, takes a day to getting used to.
God knows I'm livid with Apple for their T2 chip (edit: and Bog Sur bypassing the firewall)
Turns out it's not doing that: https://www.reddit.com/r/privacy/comments/k07yan/macos_big_sur_does_not_bypass_vpns/
I'm going to go out on a late-night limb here and say that to a certain extent you may have to bear some responsibility for these issues. You bought a £3k laptop and your USB 2.0 mouse didn't work with it. Why not just change your mouse? Or buy an apple trackpad and bathe in its awesomeness.
And then you install the very first version of a new OS which has been designed primarily for the Apple M1 SOC. Yes, it shouldn't brick your machine but you didn't need to upgrade, certainly not before checking if there were going to be issues.
God knows I'm livid with Apple for their T2 chip (edit: and Bog Sur bypassing the firewall) but I can't quite agree with this; in fact it's the reason I'm still with OSX despite Apple being dicks about dropping support for Nvidia GPUs and Linux.
