Re: Seems like a spurious argument
Would Gimp stop processing images if its development ever stops? The same applies to Photoshop, or MS Office. if you have an old copy of Office, of a version which has reached EOL for Microsoft, you might not be able to completely work with its newer document formats. RHEL 6.x didn't stop working when Red Hat EOL'd it. But with FOSS, you might find a new maintainer, if the project has relevance for enough people.
Old Android phones and LineageOS are the poster childs of the FOSS culture depicted in this article. When a phone brand stops spitting Android updates for any given model, if there is enough interest from that model's users, it might keep churning under a newer, FOSS built Android ROM.
