I need to buy a laptop mainly for programming, casual gaming sometimes.

MacOS, Windows, Ubuntu all are fine for me.

I only need PHP with Visual Studio Code, MySQL+Apache testing environment. Not cpu or gpu intensive at all.

Play LOL and CSGO sometimes, just very casual, have fun for awhile only.

I like the 16" 2k screen of this IdeaPad and there is 3 years warranty local deal without price increase. Macbook Air is around same price and it is a great all round laptop with M1.

Which one would you suggest?
