So I decided this would be the best thing to speed up the whole system, OWC have some great videos that helped in this decision With this 4 way speed test The whole SSD idea was planted by a friend who bought a MacBook air, I was at work coping a file over and it took ages to copy of my MacBook pro but seconds to get it on his MacBook air, after this we ran a few speed tests, much to his joy as a 1.6 Core 2 Duo ran faster than my Pro i7, this simple afternoon at work showed me the HDD is not only a bottle neck but the biggest bottle neck of the entire system.

I know dosdude1’s enablers are a thing but I don’t see a future where Apple doesn’t sign the OS releases once fully transitioned to ARM and intel is no longer supported, in the same matter as iOS devices.I have had my MacBook pro for a few years now, I used to be a pc user and did the whole building and modding computers, I loved the move to apple and would never go back to a Windows world.

This is entirely arbitrary and idk if we’ve seen this brazenness from Apple before in terms of their Mac OS compatibility list Last time they cut off support for Mojave’s release, the rationale was that their GPUs didn’t support Metal. My thinking when buying was that Apple would support all of them equally (for however long they intend to support intel) since they’re all 8th gen and support the same tech and instruction sets, etc, but that logic just went out the window. What concerns me is that I just bought an Apple refurbished 2018 MBP (fully expecting the ARM transition) with an 8th gen i5 and I very well may get less supported years than the 20 8th gen i5 models, even though it outbenchmarks them in certain areas, which is exactly why I bought it.

My parents aren’t savvy, they don’t care what OS they’re running, the only time they upgrade to new OS versions is when I visit and do it for them. Hell, my gaming desktop is a haswell 4790K with a 2070 Super and would barely meet apple’s definition of compatible, but Apple is gonna Apple there.

The late 2013 isn’t even on the obsolete list yet. Their options in 2014, as sold by the Apple store, were a 2014 year entry level dual core 22” iMac, late 2013 22” and 27” quad core, and 2014 high end retina 27 inch, right when those were brand new. The list of supported iMacs for Big Sur is concerning, and frankly horseshit to me. I’m going to paraphrase a comment I made in /r/macOS: This subreddit is not endorsed or sponsored by Apple Inc.
