Flex was added in 2009. Is it really too much work to update yourself every couple of years? I get that it moves fast, but that's almost 15 years.

- paddw 3y agoI think it's not the work of updating but trying to remember. If you are doing consistent frontend you can probably keep it all, but if you only touch it occasionally, it's just too much.
- yxre 3y agoFlex was added in 2009, but it had bugs as late as 2017. It is one of the problems with adding features as fast as they are. There is no point in having features if they don't work or are broadly supported
- irrational 3y agoYes. Many years ago I had the time to devote to keeping up with changes to CSS, JS, and all the other languages and technologies I use, but now I have increased responsibilities at work, a family that needs my time, a home that needs maintenance, etc. I simply do not have a minute to spare with updating. Maybe after I retire.
