Hi guys, I am thinking I am getting a MacBook, specifically the MacBook Air m2 base model. So my concern is how is the performance of the base model, my only use case would be just browsing the internet, watching movies on , Netflix, and maybe having multiple Twitch streams open at the same time, do you guys think it will handle all that without any issues is the 8gb ram gonna be a problem.

You could honestly just go with an M1 MB Air as for that workload, the difference will be negligible.

Though I would suggest to get 16GB Ram not only to future-proof, but, as you mentioned, you're doing a lot of browsing, so Twitch is going to eat up your ram fast.
