Have you updated to Sonoma or Ventura?
Is it MacBookPro11,5?
I'm asking as I would like to try, but I'm confused by wording in GH issue saying that this specific model is kind of lost

because a company bringing $ 100 billion in yearly profit can't consider you a customer anymore if you don't keep buying new shit every year
How do you think they managed to get that profit in the first place...? I'm not agreeing with Apple here, just pointing out the absurdity of expecting such a profitable company to not be already fully embracing planned obsolescence.

They managed it mostly by inventing iPhone, so it's not an absurd expectation

Monterey still receives security updates.
Even Big Sur does and it supports models from 2013 and up.
While I agree that Apple artificially abandons older models to sell more, old devices are not trash yet.
It's criminal that a 8 year device electronic is considered "trash" because a company bringing $ 100 billion in yearly profit can't consider you a customer anymore if you don't keep buying new shit every year.
