UE5 Development on MacBook Pro M5 - thoughts and opinions?

Looking to get a MacBook Pro and wondering how people feel about the experience. A lot of information I've seen online is "it runs on M2 processors" but results seem to vary. I've heard from folks who have an M4 processor that Lyra consistently crashes the engine.

In particular I'd be keen to hear about the specific models folks have and the limitations they've found, i.e. what kind of project are u making, how resource intensive, has anyone tried running Lyra and how did that go etc.

Also has anyone managed to compare the Pro and Max processors and is there any huge noticeable difference in between the two or does it get to a point where if you don't do resource extensive activities (e.g. Editor launched through the IDE with a debugger attached, running multiple clients on a separate server or having multiple packaged builds open etc) then the Pro would pass as well? Does it need to be specced out?

Thank you in advance for any answers!
