  • osx-patcher

    Discontinued A reupload of Julian Fairfax/RMC Team's OSX patcher, for patching old macs/macbooks from Mountain Lion to El Capitan (10.8-10.11), since he deleted his account and website. (by Minater247)

  • If you want to upgrade it, there’s a patcher that can upgrade 4,1 (with C2D) and 5,1 (all) iMacs up to El Capitan (saw it was a 2006), and although I’ve only used it on a MacBook, I’ve heard it works very well on iMacs as well. If you’d like, you may be able to run even more on it!

  • chromium-legacy

    Latest Chromium (≒Chrome Canary/Stable) for Mac OS X 10.7+

  • You can also use Chromium Legacy by blueboxd. While it doesn't have a built in updater, it is much more up to date than Firefox Legacy. The only problem is that it glitches sometimes on 10.7-10.8 due to a lack of GPU acceleration. I would still highly recommend it because Firefox Legacy hasn't been updated since September of 2020.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
