Just not worth it considering how old it is and how much support is left for this. Spend a little bit more and get a newer model with more years of support.
I think 8GB is too low, to be honest. My wife has the m1 with 16gb, and it's still great. Only regret was the 256gb HDD. I just picked up an M4 16gb with 512, and it's minty as hell. I'd spend a little more and score something with at least 16gb, unless you're literally just using safari and watching YouTube - which at that point, get a tablet or Chromebook

Helpful correction: m1 has an SSD which is faster than the SSD on base m2

you can buy a thumb drive and double the storage for like $25
i dk who stores over 500 GB of information is 2025 but thats an option
Extremely "meh" considering the M2 16gb deal posted for $599 or the M4 deal at $750 (less with Paypal CB).
I'm not saying the other deals aren't better, but this is the MacBook I've been schlepping around for years and it's still fast enough that I didn't bite on the $750 M4. And that includes some Flutter dev. It's a nice box.
I'd probably steer you towards the $599 M2 at the very least for the extra RAM, but nothing wrong with saving $100 if you know what you're getting.
