They always rant about Wayland, systemd, Pulse/Pipewire, devops, dkms, quic, zfs, etc.
I used to wonder why they don't just not upgrade their os, but then I realized they are lazy and want somebody else to maintain their old system for them.
I mean, even compiling gentoo with the right use set is too hard for these bellyachers.
Yet the humility never occurs to them that the non-lazy people who actually build distros are embracing the newer technology.
Instead the Old Farts case aspersions and ad-hominems at these hard workers. It's pathetic.
I'm done with their BS and won't help them understand anymore - the arguments are almost universally in bad faith.
Because otherwise they would just not upgrade. I have some Infomagic Slackware CD's from 1993 they might be interested in. Yeah, my first Linux box was over 30 years ago and I competently run all those technologies now. I don't fear change even though understanding new tech takes work and I can't just rest on my laurels.
