emacs on macos tips? (alien.top)

I'm seriously considering buying an M2 MacBook, after over 20 years on Linux. My main concern is whether it will be difficult to set up Emacs after such a long-term investment in my init files. I would love to hear from others who have made the same transition -- was it hard? Do you have tips to make it easier?

Thanks in advance!

MacOS is pretty good, it's a proper Unix system. Emacs works well, tho there are some eccentricities. Font size for example works very differently on Mac displays because there's a lot more pixels.
