Looks good, unfortunately can't test because only supports the latest Mac OS (13), which Apple doesn't provide for my MacBook that still works perfectly fine. I wish developers had a bit more tolerance with backwards compatibility as I don't feel like throwing away electronics and adding to the garbage problem because of software compatibility.

That would have to be from 2016 or earlier. My 2017 MacBook is… really not fine at all. It works, but it can only handle lighter workloads.

  I use a 2012 Toshiba Satellite daily and it’s fine. My wife’s 2018 MBP is a rocket ship by comparison

    The MacBook, specifically, is not a rocket ship. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/12-inch_MacBook https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/12-inch_MacBook The Kaby Lake m3 with 8 GB is the version I have. It is utterly and completely schooled by my 2013 MBP. The MacBook runs the latest version of macOS, unlike the MBP. I also have some PowerMacs that “run just fine”, but it’s been a while since they’ve gotten a software update.

  If my 2013 MacBook Pro 13's battery wasn't bloated to dangerous levels, and if battery replacements weren't prohibitively expensive compared to buying a new set when discounted, I might still have been using my old one instead of upgrading to a M2 MacBook Pro. I was on Mojave for the longest time before my upgrade forced me onto Ventura, and it was rock stable except that plenty of software no longer offered updates while on it, since the newer versions would be compiled with newer Xcode versions.

    I have the 2013 MBP and still use it—it’s the 2017 MacBook which is painful to use.

  I have a late 2015 i7 with 16gb RAM, 512 SSD, brand new battery. Works great, despite Apple trying to push me to buy new stuff.

Affinity Photo is an alternative that is available and works well for those of us on older systems.

Look up "Open Core Legacy Patcher", it allows you to install new versions of macOS on unsupported Macs.
