I am afraid i am at a crossroads now.
Unfortunately prices for Mac hardware increased over the years. I will definitely not buy a M1 Mac.
I will use my iMac as long as i get updates for macOS and will then switch back completely to Windows.
Most of the software  i am using is available for macOS and Windows. Okay Ulysses is one of the programs i will be definitely missing when going back to Windows.
But i am sure i will find an alternative. Maybe Obsidian, currently not as good as Ulysses, but i'll see.
