It's still not good to keep a battery at 100% ALL the time... read any article or watch any video... 80% is good and even lower is ideal if you're keeping it at that state for a long time.

Whatever floats your boat but the fact remains... NO you cannot bypass charging on a Mac. End of discussion.

Actually, no. Your mac manages the battery for you. It is perfectly fine to leave the mac plugged in most of the time. Don’t take my word for it. Read what Apple says about it.

No, its a myth

No.

Why? It’s perfectly safe to leave your device connected to ac after it reach 100%

+1 on what Rudegar wrote. Your mac does not need much attention regarding charging. The best course is just to leave it plugged in while on your desk and don’t overthink things.

What exactly is “bypass charge”?
