Where can I download Monterey on an incompatible Mac?

I want to download the latest version of Monterey but don't wish to use my iMac because it will involve it being left on too long (slow internet).


So I would like to use my 2012 Mac mini but it won't download from the App Store.


Is there anywhere else I could download it using an incompatible computer?

Mac mini, macOS 10.15

Oh, I see. Apple does offer that here - How to get old versions of macOS - Apple Support


However, the direct download links only go up to macOS Sierra. Anything past that redirects to the Mac App Store.
