10 years of support for MacBook pros and then just like a windows box that doesn’t support a 10 year old computer without a tpm you can install Linux if you want.
Or Apple actually maintains security updates for previous operating system versions.
Pixels got less than 7 years of support from Google.
Googles flagship Android device came out and still couldn’t meet the competitor. But it’s Apple that does the thing where you have to buy new hardware, yeah?
MacOS 15 is too new and not supported on my machines.
EDIT: if you’re curious, these are the devices supported by Sequoia. My macs are much older than that and the hardware still works great, which is a testament to the build quality. I just wish they still got security updates.

No, apple devices tend to have good hardware that lasts a long time.
I have several apple computers at home that still work fine except they don’t get software updates any more because they’re old :(
Just because windows does the same thing doesn’t mean it isn’t sad that I’d have to buy new hardware just to use mac OS again.
MacOS 15 is still supported for devices older that can’t get macos26.
So it’s still a better world than windows made, but you can similarly break the tpm requirement for windows 11 if you really wanted to
