    Then you slowly follow the shoes up the uncannily thin and tall figure to be greeted with a sharp toothed smile, attached to the face of a tight skinned yet aged man “helllooo, pity about the loss of another” he states.

    Perhaps rather than saying it’s stupid, you can just say “it’s not for me” as I stated I’ve been a long term Linux user, installing everything from Arch to Void, I even did a brief stint using LFS, I enjoy Linux however I prefer macOS, but I don’t go around saying I hate Linux because I don’t there is nothing wrong with it, i just prefer the way macOS works and that is a preference.

    Likely macOS is just not the correct choice for you.

    Use Opencore. Apple stopping support for older devices makes logical sense, technology progresses, maintaining legacy devices can become tedious and leaves the team with less time to focus on their current devices and versions.

    Opencore allows you to update to the latest version of macOS even if not supported. However be aware that it isn’t Apple certified but an open source project so your mileage may vary.

    For your final point the Mac’s I have used have been incredibly capable machines that I’ve been able to configure endlessly and run a large variety of languages and tools without many issues. They have sane defaults, are configurable, powerful and they run smoothly.
