I'm a likeminded fellow Brazilian, and I would love to keep my gear forever and never have to deal with choosing and spending on new shit, but software keeps getting worse (slower) and you really feel the difference after a major upgrade. Last week I got a new iPhone SE 3rd gen to replace my almost-five years old iPhone 8 due to its battery gone wild (76% of original capacity, randomly dropping to 1% from 70~80%). The old one was fine, but it was only when I got the newer that I realized what I was missing — basically, speed. I got used to iPhone 8's sluggishness to the point of not noticing nor caring about it, but when I put my hands onto the newer version, it was like I removed a giant stone from my shoulders — in that context, I mean. Today Apple announced a newer macOS that I won't be able to install on my 2015 MacBook Pro. A few minutes earlier, they announced a beast of a new computer. So… yeah, I still firmly believe that someone should keep a computer as long as possible, but if it's your tool to get work done, maybe update it once in a while — and, obviously, resell or repurpose the old, still capable one.
