Your tutorial was super easy to follow, the update and installation took quite a while but I didn't encounter any issues 😊 I can now use all the apps that had stopped working. I'm glad ti have my Mac back. I have a new iPad Pro but I still keep coming back to my MacBook Air. THANK YOU SO MUCH 🙏😊

Thank you so much Alex, your video was a lifesaver and a money saver. I thought that my only option was to purchase a new laptop and just continue to use my early 2015 13" macbook pro to watch youtube. Lol! Your video was really helpful and has allowed me to use this laptop for what I intended when I made the original purchase. It is basically still brand new so again thank you so much. Much like you, I like to put out content that is helpful to others in my community. I subscribed.
