Is it worth buying 2013 iMac?
The 2013 iMac is a good machine and can be upgrade for memory. Anything else like swapping out the drive is difficult but can be done. Of course the newer machine you buy, the longer usage you can get out of it. I personally do not recommend the 21″ iMacs because of their lack of upgradeability.
Is a 2013 iMac still supported?
Sorry, your 2013 iMac is not supported for macOS versions newer than macOS Catalina. If your system still works fine, no need to upgrade to a newer Mac. There are no security issues. If you need or want the newest features, then you’ll need to upgrade to a newer Mac.

Is it worth buying a used iMac?
Used iMacs aren’t necessarily bad computers. You can find a good refurbished model that is only a couple of years old for a more reasonable price than a brand-new iMac. Aside from a few updates here and there, an iMac from 2020 is going to look and perform much like the new 2022 iMac.
