Clean install of Sierra from Big Sur ? I just bought a used MacBook Air for live music performance ( "Core i7" 1.7 11" Mid-2013 ). It will basically be a single-purpose machine, repeatedly taking music plug-ins, files and settings from my studio production Mac and using them in a live (Ableton) environment. Since my studio Mac runs High Sierra (10.12.6) , to avoid any APFS complications I want to have my Air likewise running 10.12.6 ( it arrived loaded with Big Sur 11.7.1 , but was originally 10.8.4 ). My cautious question is, can I just fire ahead, go to the App Store and do a clean install of Sierra on my Air, or are there possible complications involved in going back to a pre-APFS operating system? (There are currently no files of my own on the machine, it's just out the box...)

big sur or catalina? I have Macbook pro 2020, Intel i5, 8 GB. I was given a friend and they installed macOS Ventura in it, and it hung very badly. After a short use, I reinstalled on macOS Monterey 12.6.2. And anyway, when you work on 4-5 windows at once, the laptop gets very hot, the fans are constantly noisy (((. and I don't want to work. Tell me please! for stable, silent and lag-free operation, install on macbook macOS big sur or macOS catalina? even if these systems freeze, I will sell this laptop 😂 It's just annoying.)
