This is absolute nonsense that highlights a complete ignorance of Linux, and classifying a certain strategy by most modern distros as a fundamental flaw that would prevent anything from ever being cross compatible. I have plenty of 3rd party applications that weren't provided as part of my distro, didn't require recompiling, and have worked fine over generations of Linux. I've also had Android games purchased as part of a Humble Bundle that now don't run on modern Android, so the logic is completely backwards. I didn't get much further than the second paragraph before I just walked away. It was painful reading.

What's "absolute nonsense" in that? The author here. Been running Linux exclusively for close to three decades now. > I have plenty of 3rd party applications that weren't provided as part of my distro, didn't require recompiling, and have worked fine over generations of Linux. Ah, exceptions once again. So dear to the heart of a Linux fan. > I've also had Android games purchased as part of a Humble Bundle that now don't run on modern Android, so the logic is completely backwards. How is this relevant at all? > I didn't get much further than the second paragraph before I just walked away. It was painful reading. I thought so. "Didn't read but object"
