Then you are 100% incorrect since you cannot google process name and find described bug in internet places like Apple Forums with 60 users with same problem. What's wrong with this user blaming for hanging background processes in Apple software, why?
OP won't explain, OP won't elaborate, OP won't describe.

The process itself isn't user error, but the fact that he can't fix it is.

He has a pattern of doing this, please take that into context next time you try to lecture someone.

I mean, it is a good laptop, honestly! I doubt I would have ever found a Windows laptop for the same price that does all that I need as fast as this little machine. Not sure I would need an upgrade anytime soon, it does all I need
Oh absolutely, they're fantastic machines! Meant it fully as a compliment to how capable they indeed are.

This is the first and only platform where I have seen how a machine with 32GB RAM doing very basic super easy workflows that you can do on a 15 years old computer without any problem, is flooding my memory and filling up all my remaining free disk space, forcing me restart the machine.

And it's Apple their own background processes that are hogging up my memory, not 3rd party apps. I checked what one of these "Apple apps" is doing, and one of these stupid ass apps is basically scanning my entire computer constantly for "media". Did I ask Apple to do this?

ARM Mac's are the new Windows Vista machines basically.
Why worry? It is unimportant. A modern OS will always try to use all the RAM you have. Unused RAM is a waste. It is better to keep a process that runs periodically in RAM than to periodically restart it. It costs nothing. The OS has a priority-based scheduler and as long as the taks you are interacting with are not having to wait, you are fine, not just fine, but there is no room to improve.

Did you ask Apple to do that? Yes. You would be upset if you plugged in an external device and macOS failed to notice. But just do not worry, it does not take away from the task you are doing.

Why would I throw away a $4000 16" M1 Max MacBook Pro? That's alot of money.

In any case, my next computer will be a PC with the RTX 5090 once those Black Friday discounts kicks in.

Have fun spending more for that video card than the rest of the computer combined (possibly even more than the MacBook) and only getting roughly a 10% uplift in real performance over the 4090. But it's your money to burn...

But the 5090 has the side benefit of being able to cook dinner using all that extra heat. And further warm the planet as well.

My Mac has 8 GB of said memory, and 512 GB of flash store. I am yet to encounter a major annoyance.

P.S. I tend to dislike big Macs (pun intended), but since the OP's struggling so much with theirs, I can help them out and accept it as a gift. Postage is on me!
