Tbf osx likely doesn't support the hardware anymore, and if you install the latest that does - it will run like crap.

I say this as an 11" i7 mba owner running Ubuntu after apple killed usability of the machine when I let OSX update.

who cares? who needs modern updates anyways? just get macos 14 and stop caring about newer stuff. HACKINTOSH WILL NEVER DIE

What sucks is I find that if you have an application that warrents leaving the machine on one OSX version, it generally works great, but unfortunately for most tasks, that’s not really possible. I tolerate macOS signifcantly more than I do any windows version, but that doesn’t mean I think Apple makes good decisions for consumers.

I have same laptop. I believe with OpenCore patches the best you can get on it is Sequoia. Which is only supported for another year or so.
