It still depends on the target audience. Some websites or apps are single-page applications (SPAs), can older devices handle that? For example, my mum’s Android phone was too slow to even load a page.

Secondly, users should upgrade their devices to stay safe online, since vulnerabile people are often scammed or tricked into downloading apps that contain malware.

So we should not cater to outdated browsers when they could pose a risk.

Yeah, I'm very amenable to this take. WordPress, for example, is infamous for having extreme backwards compatibility. But that often results in many sites being on ancient versions of php (and surely other tech as well). I'm of the opinion that they should all be running currently-supported versions of php and everything else. If you can't use my plugin because your server is shit, so be it.

Should we build SPA given it's poorly accessible and provide bad performance?

Tried old school SSR? Even on modern devices, it's waaaayy faster and much more enjoyable than JavaScript bloated "modern" website.
