    Every OS version is then supported for about 3 years.

    Define “supported”, because in my experience, you can’t run modern apps on older OS’s.

    with the Intel macs there was usually a way to update it unofficially past the 7 year

    Yes, there were a bunch of unpaid volunteers who made OpenCore Legacy Patcher, and extended the life of devices 10+ years further, which just makes it all the more offensive that Apple either couldn’t be bothered or (more likely) just wanted them to be unsupported so you’d have to go buy a new one.
