Slowdown! I am experiencing slowdown and lagging with my MBAm1. It's only a few months old. It was fast and phenomenal the first few months until recently I noticed Safari lagging and slow to load pages and or websites. Occasional freezing up apps as well. I keep it updated so that's not the problem or is it? Do any one have any solutions or suggestions?

Never mind. I solved my own problem.
There have been several similar posts where users are experiencing slow performance. It would be very helpful, and it is customary, to post your solution so that others may benefit from what you did.

No! Bobthafisherman. No more freebies for you. You're a smart person, you'll figure it out.
You came here looking for free help from other users yet you won't provide other users any help.
Hmmmmmm
That's the difference between you and me Bobthafisherman. I pay for apple care for all my devices and I help those that help me. But you Bobthafisherman are a taker, you give back nothing and you take all that's free and pay for nothing.

Clearly you do not understand how these user-to-user help communities work. What am I getting for free?
My Apologies robnich, I did solve the problem but since there was no feedback to my thread it was assumed there was no other person with the problem so I posted no solution until bobthafisherman smarted off with his hand out for the solution with his "it's my duty" remark that caused this fiasco. I did search the community for the same question and problem and it just did not exist. Don't assume just because I am level 1 with no points that Bobthagloryseeker knows more and is smarter than me. I'm not here for attention or to scratch up popularity points, I am here to find real solutions to real problems from real people.

Wow!
All I did was suggest that other users may/would benefit from you posting your solution. I don't have the issue nor am I seeking a solution. I came here trying to help you but you found a solution. Why is it so difficult to share your solution with other users?

Good day, Bobthefisherman! Here is a bone for you. Don't run non-native software on the M1 chipset.
Great information to pass on to less experienced users who may be experiencing the same issue. Thank you for posting your solution.

This from someone at Level 1 to someone at Level 9. Hard to believe except either as a foolish joke, or as a cover for not actually having a workable solution to coherently describe.
