@pacavegano @Em0nM4stodon so every OS version for every device for as long as they sell a device?

@pacavegano @Em0nM4stodon what do you think they should do instead?

@Em0nM4stodon I think it is really difficult to maintain and sustain more than just the latest version of a piece of software, which then in turn leads to fixes shipping together with features. Having had to back port security fixes to an old version of Android I really feel for picking the lowest cost way out.

@Em0nM4stodon what do you think is a reasonable and sustainable software update model? How many versions behind do you back port fixes to? For how many months/years?
