How often do you actually browse with old hardware? I have a 2009 MacBook Pro that I and my family use almost every day for basic web browsing. It has no trouble with Reddit, YouTube, Facebook, PBS Kids, even newspaper sites. We do block ads, which probably helps.
Is it as fast as my M1 MacBook Air? No, of course not. Is it unusably slow? No.

I upgraded from a notebook with a 6th gen Intel chip which I thought was fine to a notebook with a 5th gen Ryzen and the difference blew me away and made me realize how sluggish things were on my older machine in comparison. There's nothing wrong per se with my old machine, on it's own it's fine, but the newer on is so much faster in comparison, it's night and day for me. For my parents the old machine is fine not it's own but they're coming from one with a core 2 quad so there's that perspective.
