          It actually works so well. And it's pretty cheap too, for the quality. All other high quality ones are way more expensive. The official Samsung one is also terrible

            They should be dirt cheap because it’s a passive cable. USB Type-C controller on the host detects the special alt-mode and the left/right signals are piped right in. It’s essentially a non-round 3.5mm port.

      As the other commenter said, definitely look into Linux. Linux can run on aging hardware pretty well. If you're partial to the layout and UI of MacOS check out Elementary OS. I've never used it before but I have heard some good things about it.

      IIRC it was a Webkit vulnerability, so you're ok on this if you're using Firefox. But as the other person said, your whole OS is old and that always comes with some risk.
