Over a period of years people get new machines, upgrade existing machines to new distro versions, and update other packages in a way that is oft incompatible with keeping an older package pinned as its requirements may become incompatible with the requirements of newer packages, kernels, and of course distro versions. I think they are blaming the vendor who received their money not the nebulous and non-specific Linux community. Despite being lauded compared to closed source Nvidia AMD has had painful support issues as well.
