New Macbook, hesitant on using Al Dente app or batt, thoughts? - sh.itjust.works

HI all. Finally changed my old laptop and I’ve been wondering if I should be using an app like Al Dente or batt [https://github.com/charlie0129/batt] to preserve it’s battery cycles. Anyone have personal experiences with one or the other that they care to comment on? Thanks!

The battery life is so great on the current MacBooks, that I wouldn’t even bother. Sure you could eek out another six months before the battery needs to be replaced several years into the future.

How long do you plan on using the machine?

Thanks for your reply ! My last unit lasted 9 years so that counts but looking at feedback from recent models it looks like a lot of progress has been made already so I’m not sure if it’s worth it to worry that much
