I've been running an M1 Air w/ 8GB for a few years, and it's still working fine.

Me too but the latest macOS version has ruined it for me, I had to switch back to a previous version.

But how are Neo users dealing with this? It’s a new machine, surely it works with 8GB?

My Neo runs like a sowing machine with 8GBs. So well that I honestly cannot think of any instances where I have felt the system slowdown. I use the device appropriately though -- I'm not trying to run SOTA LLMs locally or anything. For web browsing, light programming, and an iPad replacement, the Neo has exceeded my expectations. Compared to my M4 Mini, I honestly cannot tell a difference.

Apple provides security updates for the current and two prior versions of macOS. Occasionally, critical updates for older versions.
