I assume it'll say your device doesn't support the new version if your computer is more than 6 months old, so you're constantly forced to buy the newest latest model
People like to perpetuate this about Apple, but it’s really not true. I’ve had my Mac for... over ten years? It can get the most recent version of Catalina, which was updated until 2022. It’s still going strong and I use it every day.
So why did my 2011 iMac never receive anything beyond High Sierra?
(Edit: was confused about versions, don't mind me)
You have an older model than mine, I have a mid 2012 Macbook Pro, that may be why
I confused versions and thought there was a bigger gap between High Sierra and Catalina than there actually is, my bad
Can confirm, my early 2011 MBP still works a dream, but I can’t go past High Sierra. Late 2011 models can. Ah well.
