Maybe it has something to do with the year 2011. My 2011 Macbook Pro 13" is still alive and kicking. With max 16GB RAM and replacing the spinning rust with an SSD, it's remarkably nimble as well. It's done a lot of travelling, and I've replaced the battery 3 times due to battery life going down too far. I finally upgraded to an M1 Macbook Air, which is also really nice, but the number of miles on that old axe was impressive. I still have it, and the kids use it for various school things. My only complaint is it is now at EOL for OS updates.
