When I received this MacBook, I replaced the hard drive with a solid-state drive and chose to install macOS 10.14 Mojave instead of Catalina. This is because I wanted to retain the 32-bit application support in Mojave that was removed in Catalina. Mojave is still a very usable operating system, so there's not much trade-off using it over Catalina. | When I received this MacBook, I replaced the hard drive with a solid-state drive and chose to install macOS 10.14 Mojave instead of Catalina.

Unfortunately, the above statement did not age very well, as many programs have since dropped support for Mojave. I gave in and upgraded to Catalina since I didn't actually have any specific use for 32-bit application support in Mojave. Now, I can keep using Firefox, Steam, Discord, and OneDrive for a little while longer on this Mac. | |||
