I was looking for a custom ROM for my current phone, and I came across this. Personally, I think that this is a very misleading comment, and has quite a bit of factual inaccuracies.

    Nonsense.

    Minimum requirements go up a little, but the reason they don’t support modern versions is exclusively cost cutting.

    And it’s definitely not true with Linux. They occasionally abandon old, dead hardware when the development effort is too high for the benefit, but for the most part mainstream hardware will still work as well or better on modern versions.
