You're missing the point. Yes old buggy, unpatched software is awful. I know that. I SAID that a few posts ago. The problem here is about how Dropbox communicated with their customers. Or —as in this case— how they didn't communicate. Dropbox has known about the death of XP from 2014. It shouldn't have taken them over two years to remove XP from being a headline supported operating system. They should have said something months ago. They're the service provider. The onus is on them to communicate this stuff in good time. Notice is important because organisations (of all sizes) have legacy systems that can take years to migrate to newer operating systems. Long notice about when your software dies allows you to plan. 30 days notice is going to ruin August for some people.
