Comment (by mcs):

 My understanding is that Apple is fuzzy about what they support and what
 they do not support, but I think it is correct to infer based on the
 stream of security patches issued by Apple that 10.11 is the oldest
 version of macOS that they still support. But as gk said, Firefox still
 supports 10.9 and 10.10, so we would like Tor Browser to work on those
 systems as well.
