I this case, they are probably suffering from success. Shitty manufacturing and unrepairability aside, the M macbooks are the first competent macbooks in quite a while, so most people probably bought the first versions and now they have no desire to upgrade, because why would they? I have an M1 Pro and aside from gaming performance there is absolutely no reason for me to upgrade.

Istn that the case for every notebook these days?

I have the same model, use it for music production and it's the sound of my piano via Pianoteq and my synth via Arturia Pigments. It's going great.

But if they're that good,why don't people buy 2 or 3 of them? Don't they like apple anymore?

They are expensive for the general public. But the M1 chip is actually very performant.
