My Mac is old, 2013, so I can’t update it past a certain OS version. I can’t install Bisq and it’s pissing me off.

format it and put linux on it
problem solved
I used this OpenCore Legacy Patcher video to update a 2015.
This is interesting
The way Apple gimps their hardware is a huge turn-off. They're a hardware company, so they want to sell you a new device. I now have two olders Macbooks we had to retire (2011 and 2012 MBPs) because they couldn't run Nextcloud due to the OS being out of date. Linux is the way forward for sure if you don't want to replace it.
Probably gonna look into flashing a Linux instance on this old thing so I can at least keep this as a server if I get a new laptop.
