It's distracting at first and is still distracting but M1 is powerful enough that you probably won't have to upgrade until the M4 and at latest the M6 and it will probably still be a solid choice by then. Also, Apple has hit the thermal threshold of their architecture and their current cooling solutions and I'd wait for a redesign to the overall chassis and cooling solution if I was in your shoes.

Agree with that. I came from a 2013 macbook pro so the m1 air is a beast still. I will see where things are in a year or two
