Minecraft - LWJGL 3 for Mac Lion or upgrade to 10.9 without slowing it down?

[bys1]

Minecraft requires the LWJGL library to work. With 1.13, they updated to LWJGL 3, which apparently doesn't support anything below 10.9. I have a 13-inch MacBook 7,1 from mid 2010 and upgraded my RAM from 2 to 8 GB. It was originally on Mac OS X 10.6.4 and later upgraded to Mac OS X 10.7.5 which I'd like to keep. Is there any way to get LWJGL running on 10.7.5?

The other solution is to upgrade to Mac OS X 10.9. However, a friend has the exact same Mac as I have (however still with 2 GB RAM) and also upgraded, and that mac become very slow after upgrading. Can I somehow upgrade my Mac without slowing it down? I can't afford to buy a new one...

Maybe install windows?

Please don't reply if you don't have a good answer.

Upgrading doesn't help if apple is slowing down old hardware to force users to buy new mac or iphones :/. So install windows or linux

I have a Mac with 16GB ram and I think when you upgrade it you need to buy a official apple thing. :D
