Is it worth it to replace battery on a 2013 MBP?

My 2013 MBP needs a new battery. This is a pretty old laptop, but still works fine. It's doesn't have apple care and I researched I think the battery replacement is $200. Ever since I updated to Big Sur the battery has significantly went down. I also have a warning sign to service the battery. I just wanted to get opinions from some others that were in the same situation once. I mainly use it for college and browsing. It would be nice to get a new one that's faster. Thanks for your advice.
