1. It is my long standing opinion, that the best thing to do when
setting up a new computer, Mac or Windows, is to make a clean start,
and never setup a new Mac using a Time Machine backup. This is
especially true when moving from an Intel Mac, to a Mac with an M1
processor.
I believe that you should move all of your important documents to your
iCloud drive, where they will be available from the new Mac, once you
sign into your AppleID, and access your iCloud drive.
Then, I would begin the process of installing your applications using
the most up-to-date installers available.
I agree this is the best approach. You could also set up SMB file
sharing on both systems and copy important files across to the new
machine. Or set up ssh and use rsync.
