Man, there’s a lot of shit one can criticize Apple for, but planned obsolescence? I’m typing this from my 2012 MacBook Air, which has my iPhone 8 plugged into it that I use for work every day. I don’t upgrade because I don’t have a need to.

You don’t upgrade because you can’t. Apple intentionally locks down its products. And that’s before getting into the numerous lawsuits over battery life and iOS slowdowns.
Apple is absolutely engaged in planned obsolescence.
My 2011 no-brand laptop still runs perfectly with the latest version of Debian, and i can replace the externaly accessible battery, as well as RAM sticks, SSD and even the DVD drive. Apple is litterally worst in class, and it’s a shame so many players of the industry follow suite with all this BS.
