Is it ok to keep my MacBook Air plugged into the wall for charging all the time?

Hi. I just got a Macbook Air M1 2020, my first apple laptop.


I have it set up at a desk where I think it is going to remain for the most part.


Is it ok to keep it plugged into the wall while it is there? This won't harm the battery?


Thanks.

I have a 2020 M1 MacBook Air that I bought within a month of when it was first released. After over 3 years of spending 95% of the time on the power adapter it is working just fine and has a battery capacity of 92.5% of what it was new.


Just make sure that you have optimize charging enabled in battery settings.
