MacOS 10.12 Sierra Support

This is very niche admittedly, but I find that especially on older hardware that 10.12 can be preferable to 10.13, mostly due to HFS+ not destroying drives like APFS is known for, and that 10.12 is much better with 32-bit app support such as Final Cut Pro 7 and the older Adobe CS5 and CS6.

DrinkYourPotatoes I too have a machine runnign High Sierra. It is extremely hard to do though as most APIs Orion uses are not present. If we ever do this it would be for paid members only. Would you pay for a browser?

DrinkYourPotatoes I am sure you've already tried your applications on High Sierra and Mojave but am about the reasons you gave for preferring (non-High) Sierra. HFS+ is still supported for non-boot drives through current macOS versions and was supported as the boot drive through Mojave (10.14). If the only thing special about (non-High) Sierra for you is HFS+ and 32-bit support, Mojave should also work.

Vlad I actually would consider paying for it, but only if paying for it gave me access to multiple macOS/OS X versions before High Sierra, mainly (non-high) Sierra and El Capitan and if the price was reasonable, which I consider Orion+ to be as of now.

bzgnyc There are two reasons I prefer non-high Sierra to High Sierra or Mojave:

On my 2010 MacBook upgraded with 8GB RAM and an SSD, Sierra runs faster than High Sierra and the Mojave patcher, which is my main reason.
High Sierra broke some older apps, like Final Cut Pro 7, Logic Pro 9, and older CS versions of the Adobe suite.
