It feels pretty fucking ironic when my old macbook/laptop supports new OS versions for a decade, but my few years old high-end gaming PC? Outdated for Win11.

Enshittification!

You can buy a Firewire to USB-C adapter and MacOS knows what to do with a first-gen iPod. If you've got a 25 year old mp3 player in functioning condition a current day Mac can make it go.

You just try making a Zune go.

As much noise as Microsoft makes about software backwards compatibility, they are absolute fuckpuke at supporting old hardware.

What? Windows recognizes a zune as a storage device, no different than an old flash drive. What support is needed for an old mp3 player beyond being able to transfer music?
