Web developer (React ecosystem)
Macbook Pro M1 PRO, 16gb/1tb (I wanted to buy 32gb/1000tb but it was either or)
1. More quiet and less hot than any previous intel macs I have used
2. Nothing missing, there was some discussion in earlier project where some fork/similar of Kubernetes wouldn't work
3. see previous, should be ok; running atm Docker. but i would google your frameworks and see if compatibility issues
4. I would go for 32gb/1tb if it is an option, otherwise 16gb is ok - I haven't felt the need for more (running parallels, some vms, docker, ide, chrome,firefox,safari, chat progrems (discord,slack,other), etc)
Still, nothing compares even remotely to my windows PC at home (32gb ram, m2ssd, i9) - it is so responsive that any mac feels sluggish and slow; but I think this could be because windows prioritises UI processes? Everything feels instant compared to mac (x ms delay opening anything etc)
