I hate this so much. Why should they be able to do this?

One thing is stopping customer support and internal software/OS development. But why should they BLOCK compatibility for third party developers?

By killing the product completely they're forcing their users to upgrade. It's always profits man, that's always the reason

I know. I was saying that is so unreasonable that they shouldn't be allowed to do it.

That said. I hope people are not so stupid to trust Meta with an upgrade after something like that.
