Web dev or embedded dev? Shouldn't make any difference at all whether you go with Intel Mac, ARM Mac, Windows, or Linux, except for your personal preferences regarding which OS, tools, and (maybe) the platform you will deploy to. So yes, it's still worth it today iff it was worth it (to you) last year.
Native Mac or iOS app dev? Yes, it's not only worth it, but it will be your only option for a while and then an equally good option for a few years thereafter.
