asklemmy is not a support channel. I haven't found any macOS related support channel on lemmy and while Im searching the internet for macOS forums, Id like to know if you have any recommendation. Some questions I have are:

how to reinstall an OCLP unsupported macOS security copy from a usb stick to the original partition

Would it make sense to ask an apple vendor to change the notebook's keyboard? It's Portuguese, I want an American keyboard)

Where do I get more memory, a new battery and can I change both things at home or is it all glued together and the only way to do it is through a vendor?

I have experience using oclp. The steps are listed on the website, and when you download the patching app, it guides you through the steps, too. But read through the site first. It’s relatively simple and most of the complicated work is automated.

But changing out the internal parts of any MacBook after 2015 will be a mess of soldered- and glued-in parts that it’s best to get changed out by a vendor trained to do it.
