Is there an optimum level to which I should allow the battery to deplete before recharging? Does that level change over time?

I would personally recommend 80%.

According to battery research, 20 - 80% is the optimal range of use. Let it discharge to 20% before charging to 100%. Keep it on 100% for an hour, and then keep it in the 80% range when possible.

Actually, a smaller range is ideal as far as pure battery longevity. Alas, it's not very practical. 20-80% is a good middle ground.

Just don’t deplete it all the way or keep it constantly on plugged in and enjoy it.

Enjoy the M1 beast and that mini led display, charge when needed, no need to cycle the battery or even worry about it.

Don't worry too much about battery. But keeping it between 20 to 80% is best. Keep it for charging when the battery hits 20% and charge all the way up to 100%
