Not to get all Apple-apologia, but my wife’s old Macbook is still going strong for casual use (email, video streaming, web browsing) after nearly a decade.
Not really a badge of honor or anything, just that it takes a lot to bog down even substandard out of date hardware to a noticable degree if you don’t do a ton on it in the first place.
I’ve got a top-of-the-line 2015 Macbook Pro that works well today. I also don’t understand why Macbooks are held as mutually exclusive to Linux. They’re just a computer, plug in your bootable Linux USB and install it. I’ve got Linux on mine and it works decently.

Btw might be a good idea to clean its fans and air vents, especially if it gets hot and/or slow fast
