oh, these are all four years past their EOL. Yeesh.
Yeah, at a certain point it’s the consumer’s (and blog writer’s) fault, and that’s after EoL. Not patching a supported one and just getting rid of support, saying buy a newer one? Yeah, that’s bad.
Continuing to not support an EoL model that you already don’t support due to EoL (or even dropping support for an EoL model that no one expected you to support in the first place due to EoL)? Non-issue.
I was going to disagree, because manufacturers often set a very short and arbitrary EOL, but looking at the amazon price history this doesn’t seem to have been sold new since around 2013.
