    I mean it did change for a very good reason. Stuff gets hacked because everyone is online always. In “the good old days” it wasn’t a problem because people weren’t really online so there was pretty much zero risk of old software being used to exploit your machine. These days? It’s a liability to have old stuff on your phone because someone could exploit it to steal stuff from a large number of users.

      Small security updates when necessary would be fine, but all the time I just see software (especially with the web) be like, we’re deprecating these features (that millions of websites use).
