I don't see the point of keeping OS X Yosemite 10.10.5 on my MacBook Pro, Core i5, software is so old SSL certificates are out of date, I can't update neither the stock software or any application - eviltoast

MacBook Pro, Core i5, 2.8 GHz (I5-4308U), model A1502 (EMC 2875), Retina Mid-2014 13", MacBookPro11,1, RAM 8 GB, VRAM 1.5 GB, Storage 512 GB SSD

vlc, tor, brave, firefox… are apps that I cannot download. Neither can I use mac’s app store, because software is too old.

What would be the point of not nuking this OS X?

    Good time to install Linux and switch for good. You’ll save thousands of dollars over your lifetime if you stop buying Apple.

      That’s a very solid advice! I started dual booting all my old macbook with Fedora KDE and another on Pop_OS and they are doing ultra well.
