Realise just announced so detail may be light at the moment but does anyone know if the M2 MBA will support 2 external monitors?
also for those with MBA m1 has anyone had one with 16gb ram? Worth it? My m1 MBA 8gig is great but too much safari can kill performance. Wondering if 16gig would make a decent difference
MacBook Air 13″, macOS 12.4
The m2 macbook air can conenct 1 external display without using workarounds
see;
MacBook Air with M2 chip - Tech Specs - Apple
Display Support
Simultaneously supports full native resolution on the built-in display at 1 billion colors and:
Thunderbolt 3 digital video output
For ram, 16 GB will give you alot more headroom than 8 GB

I don't have a m1 MacBook myself so I have not tried any, but it would most likely not work as good as native, and can be broken by OS updates etc,
As for what workarounds exist I would recommend looking for guides with first hand knowledge, without first hand knowledge I dont feel comfortable giving any recommendation

There are no "workarounds" to make the computer support more than one external display.
