I recently got an M1 MBA to replace my 2019 MBA which I traded in. The M1 is causing a lot of eyestrain/headaches which I didn't experience with the 2019.

I'm basically looking for what my alternatives are. I'm entertaining the thought of using an 11" iPP as a replacement.

But I wanted to check before giving it a try --

Is there anyone that found the display on the M1 MBA to be painful to use due to eyestrain/headaches but was able to tolerate the 11" iPP?

Probably the main app I will miss is the Terminal, but it seems like there are 3rd party apps for that. I would also be forced to use cloud-based apps for Office and TurboTax but it's something I'd be willing to compromise on if it means I get a display that is won't cause eyestrain/headaches.
