Which is extremely annoying. Many new iOS features, like E2E encrypted backups and the shared photostream, require all devices to be on the latest OS.

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.

You might want to try using OpenCore Legacy Patcher [1]. It basically turns your old unsupported mac into a hackintosh via a custom bootloader. I got Ventura running on my late 2012 MBP using the patcher.

Thanks for the tip. I never heard of that project before.
