I run a 2012 MacBook Pro (hi res antiglare display) running Mojave (10.12) with Davinci Resolve 16, Adobe CS6 and a whole bunch of video/audio apps that all work really well. I took out the DVD drive and popped another SSD so there’s two inside. It boots up from dead in 30 seconds and does everything I need it to, including running all the stuff I need. Oh, and there’s 2 identical MBPs in case one goes down.
If I had the cash, I would love a brand new MBP to run the latest Resolve on, but the career will come to an end soon so no point for me. Instead I drool over things like an Eibenstock Surface Shaver, or a new Beta 30 engine :-)
I will, however, treat myself to a retirement present at the end of next year: a Panasonic GH6 or 7 if I can find one reduced. Can’t just stop making videos - have to be weaned off ;-)
Hope all well
