Depending upon what Mac you have, it's perfectly possible to

If you need to run non-Aqua or non-OS X-native apps, then you're
probably running the wrong OS. It has been axiomatic for decades that
you choose the apps you need to fit your requirements, then pick the
best OS to support them and buy whatever hardware it needs.
