I don't know if older macs are intentionally crippled or they're just ignored during QA, More likely neither. Software just becomes larger and more complex and thus slower on older hardware. (My 2021 MacBook Pro 14" is still lightning-fast though, I never wait for anything.) |

So every major OS update is larger and more complex, so it's to be expected that after ~4 of those my machine lags when doing literally everything? It's not that I'm running tons of background apps, it's a powerful machine lagging on a clean install of a recent macOS version when doing basic operations like opening a webpage.

I suppose it's Apple Silicon? Because that would still be in line with Intel-based macs becoming less performant over time
