Guys, I also really think that this is still a very capable machine for lot of people as a daily driver.
I had a 2017 12" m3 MacBook and loved it very much, I used it to drive a 43" 4K external monitor and was very happy using it when traveling, it is so incredibly light
The MacBook Air 2020 is much thicker and heavier in comparison, you really notice it. Working with Office, playing music, surfing the web with Safari with lots of tabes open, all worked fine, you could even do software development on it! And I really liked its butterfly keyboard, I luckily did not have any problems with it. Great sound, great display, completely loudness operation, lovely
I hope Apple will bring back the 12" with a M1 chip, that would be a dream.
You can read my review and my thoughts on this little beauty here:

I sold it because I wanted to try the MacBook Air 2020 M1 and I already have a 16" MacBook Pro and I often miss it when I am traveling with the 2020 M1 Air :-(
