8GB is not enough RAM. however, Apple memory management feels kinda magic? my base m2 air is fast enough even when swapping. i like to have a lot of apps open at once and i don’t close them until I’ve finished a project so it’s not enough memory for me. for the average person id argue it’s fine… and i bet apple is going to do a base spec upgrade anyways in a year or two and make a ton of money because of it :p

Swapping is a nice way to burn that soldered on SSD fast!
