Apple sure don't want to make development on their gear easy do they. I bought a very cheap mac mini a few years ago with the aim of producing an app but despite trying to get something they would support for a while, its now effectively a very pretty brick. I am now loathe to buy a newer one. Obviously the best thing to do is throw down on a macbook air with an M1 and hope they keep updating it long enough that I can get decent resale for it when I am done with the 20 minutes of xcode I need it for each week. Android is so much easier.
