Except for the usb c charge port - magcharge was the best invention and I’ll never understand why it was removed.

I have the M1 MacBook Pro with MagSafe and I still charge it via USB C simply because I can't be bothered to carry around another cable when all of my other peripherals are USB C.

I have the same. I would much rather have a different port, like USB-A, than something I have never used

It's the other way around, isn't it? MagSafe was removed in the 2016-2019 model years (not sure why; maybe to shave off another bit of thickness?), and then brought back in 2020 to MacBook Pro and 2022 to MacBook Air.

Personally, I practically never use MagSafe, because the convenience of USB C charging cables all over the house outweighs the advantages of MagSafe for me.

Pro tip, USB c magnetic adapter is cheap and works well enough
