Responding to you because you're the most verbal here so far. I recently upgraded from an m1 pro 14" to an m2 max 16". Leagues above anything else on the market, IMO. But people still seem to be sticking to the M1 praise. Is it just market lag, or is there something about the M1 specifically?

M1 is just a synonym for Apple Silicon at this point.

It could also be affected by the lowest entry point on M2 being higher than M1 was, but I'm pretty sure there isn't any "M1 is better than M2" energy happening.

What the other person said. Eventually we’ll have a word for it that isn’t five syllables or an inaccurate name for the first gen processor.
