My #apple laptop turns 10 years in about a month (it was actually built for more than 10 years ago). The OS has not been upgraded for a few years now, and I’m facing more and more often the wall “your OS is too old this app does not work on it” (lastly #onedrive which I need for school work).

Now I’m struggling between installing #linux on it and getting a new laptop.

[#]linux would mean my so far functioning important apps would not be available, namely #indoorTrainer app #systm by #wahoo

Getting a new laptop would mean I’d use both work and home laptops, which is sort of unnecessary.

@rpsu I have MX Linux running on my mid-2011 Macbook Air, and it's pretty good. There's even a theme, which makes the UI look like MacOS.

@rpsu I have no experience on this, but there's this, which claims to make it possible to run Mac apps on Linux
