I just wonder why companies depreciate versions like this. Like, they are trillion dollar company, how much it would cost to keep the old version for those who want? Maybe the person has an old computer or something. Maybe I'm being somewhat of conspiracy theorist crackpot, but I see a lot of malice on these attitudes. It's less about this example in particular and more about a pattern of behavior you see. Everything moving from basic standard HTML to, who knows, maybe some web Integrity API, and one day you can't access the new version of gmail because you are running some unauthorized browser extension.
