I need help with slow mac
Can someone please help me read my EtreCheck Report? I had my last mac for at least 13 years. This one I barely use since it is unuseable due to being so slow. I am pasting the report below. Trying to determine if this is fixable or if I should try to get rid of this one and buy a new one. Thank you.
