I have been thinking about buying a MacBook air m1 2020, and it is year 2024 as I'm writing this. I was just wondering how many more years of software updates it will receive, as it is a decisive factor on whether it is worth buying for me or not.
You might want to consider a M2 or M3 MacBook Air.
Those have a MagSafe 3 charging port and a better sound system. They are (or were, in the case of the M2) available in both 13” and 15” sizes. You can (or could( order them with 24 GB of RAM. And the M3 MacBook Airs can drive two external displays when their lids are closed.

Only Apple knows when they will release an operating system that excludes the 2020 M1 Mac. We are fellow users and do not have access to internal Apple planning information or provide speculation. Apple continues with their three-year cycle of updates for the current and previous two generations of macOS.
Apple still has 2020 M1 Air models in its refurbished store, and that is the only source where I purchase a used Mac with 12 months warranty and like new physical condition.
In addition to VikingOSX’ tips, this may offer additional insights as it describes when Apple considers their products Vintage and Obsolete.
