For what it's worth, the very first butterfly keyboard MacBook is the only one that's fallen off of being supported by the latest macOS, and that only happened in October. So at least you got a good 6 years out of it, I guess?

Apple is forcing me to replace my otherwise functional device. I'll have to look into putting linux on it, because I won't be able to sign into my apple id on it.

I got Ventura running on my late 2012 MBP using the patcher. [1] https://dortania.github.io/OpenCore-Legacy-Patcher/ https://dortania.github.io/OpenCore-Legacy-Patcher/
