Unfortunately, that has always been the way.  Software keeps on
changing, and it's not always an "upgrade."  You can say the same for
other technology, too.  e.g. Digital radio and TV, with poorer quality
sound and/or picture, worse reception problems, more complicated to use.

Hence why several of my computers are still on Fedora 9.  They work how
I want, don't need updating, and I'd have to throw away the hardware and
buy new expensive hardware to be able to run the current OS on them.

I'm not sure what a "death developer" is, it sounds quite awful.  But I
agree with the complaint that some people just endlessly fiddle with
their computers, without actually really using them, and think that
everybody else does the same thing.

Mine actually gets used as a tool, fiddling around with it is the last
thing I want to do.  It wastes my time having to tweak things to get
them to do what I want them to.
