Think about power consumption of your hardware. If it is supposed to run 24/7 this can add up over a year. The money could be invested in power efficient hardware instead. There are calculators online

I have the m2 air with 16gb ram and am really happy with it. I carry it in my bag everyday so the weight difference to the 14pro is importantly to me. But I have to say that I semi regularly forget to bring my usb c hdmi dongle to meetings. I am still leaning more towards the air since I can still do video cutting and coding much faster than on any other pc.

I find the topic interesting and want to both experiment with the ortholinear and split concepts. But the main thing holding me back is the same reason I am using zsh and not fish: compatibility. I don’t want to confuse myself with two ways of typing when I need to work on another pc and I will not be using a split keyboard on my laptop for example.

Nice I wanted to play with eink displays at some point but they are still quite expensive.
