Would be interesting to know what hardware generations are completly useless today due to other issues like this.

Linux packages no longer being available, sourcecode missing, CPU features missing, etc.

Windows 11 also kills quite a lot of hardware.

I had to upgrade my working laptop because my 4k display broke the GCP console when doing a screenshare (GCP Console became very slow when doing screensharing).

I had to upgrade my CPU when upgrading my camera because the RAW Fileformat of my new campare made my old high end CPU so much slower, it was crazy (i guess the new size broke cache line alignment or whatever, it wasn't slow with the older files).

My high end CPU from 6 years ago, i just replaced it with a new CPU (for less money than 6 years ago) and the CPU is double the performance.

I used a older system of mine on a hacker event for file sharing and other hacker experiments and redid the same thing with a better system. All the issues disappeared i had regarding performance.

Doing this now for 20 years, hardware is a lot more commodity than i thought.
