I am running Mint on a MacBook Air from 2008
-
How does it run? That's not your main machine, I hope.
-
Definitely not. But still okay for browsing and mail. My main machine is a 27” 5K iMac from 2014 that is running MacOs Sonoma under open core.
-
Why not mint there as well??
-
Can‘t run DaVinci resolve as good and a bunch of other reasons. MacOS can be pretty nice.

I see, I give macOS another shot on my newly acquired 2013 retina MacBookPro (pf course for free). And is it only to finally get my TOTP out of apple keychain 🤣🤟🏻

I replaced the battery and RAM on a Macbook Pro 8,1 running Pop_OS recently and the damn thing didn't even work better. The battery still only lasted around an hour or two on medium brightness and YouTube @ 720p. Absolutely garbage, and it really made me feel like a fool for spending the extra money on that damn thing.

Does it still run with a HD? Upgrading to SSD really accelerated mine.

I had also replaced the HDD with an SSD. :(
