Reply to comment by krectus in Apple introduces new Mac mini with M2 and M2 Pro — more powerful, capable, and versatile than ever by TbonerT

This. These complaints come from people who would never need/use more than 8 or 16GB. Big Sur runs great on a 2014 8GB Mini. MacOS is extremely efficient in its use of RAM. The M processors make up for any loss, and if that's not enough, you shouldn't be buying a Mini.

Remember that RAM is combined on these machines. Ofc this was the case for prior Mac Minis but important to remember for anyone used to iMacs with AMD GPUs
