Hi all
I'm moving from one MacBook Air M1 to another (with a better spec), both running Sequoia. I'm carrying out a clean install. Can I just connect both computers via the USB-C ports, then drag & drop my existing Photo Library (User > Pictures > Photos Library) to the same location on my new MacBook?
Thanks!

Yes. It's pretty cool to connect them. You could also just drag a copy of the Library to an external drive, shift the drive to the other computer, and drag the Library to the 2nd computer's Pictures Folder.
To connect them together, see this?

If you use the external drive method be sure it's formatted APFS or OS X Extended (journaled) to preserve the library's integrity.
