I don’t know about the EWaste part, I own a 2015 MacBook Pro and that thing is immortal! Still runs as smooth as the day I got it and it’s seen a lot of abuse.

Don’t know of many other brands that have this type of longevity. Out of the many laptops and PC’s that I owned, non lasted this long.

That’s a respectable age for a Laptop but nothing special, I used and even owned multiple older devices from various brands like Lenovo, Asus and HP and you just got lucky that you aquired the Pro rather than the Air with it’s “high quality” Butterfly keyboard that apple build into four or five generations with minimal tweaks that didn’t fix the breakage and only covered two of them!

Linux

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
