Yes this FUD, EOL-ed LTS support individually same goes to older debian , older redhat or older EOL-ed windows , better you migrate to supported LTS-one , like move from EOL-ed debian to stable Debian one

sound like FUD, ubuntu don't hold back security updates for their LTS distro , move to newer LTS one if you wanna secure your system, same goes to Debian or RedHat or Windows , who wanna maintain older Debian 9 security or Windows 7 secuity update.

Enterpise espeically banking need standard and certification for reliability thats why , also certain Linux distro had certified before from China based on RHEL.

This is UNIX 03 certified OS with OSS alternatives from I gathered on internet :

- Apple OS X 10.7 - Apple macOS 26 , provide OSS Darwin 9 - Darwin 26

- Oracle Solaris 10 / 11 , provide OSS OpenSolais , then Illumos

- EulerOS 2.0 , based on RedHat Enterprise Linux / RHEL 7 and 8

- Inspur K-UX 2.0 , based on RedHat Enterprise Linux / RHEL 5

- Inspur K-UX 3.0 , based on RedHat Enterprise Linux / RHEL 7

Native is fast , no extra layer , the problem is maintaining on every native platform your app available. And AI tooling can handle that efficiently today , not way back then.

The problem with xplat is they add extra layer on top of platform native.

- React native and similar, add extra js runtime engine.

- Flutter and Kotlin MP add extra skia graphics engine.

- Skiptools add extra swift runtime

- Cordova adn similar add extra browser engine

- Etc

yes the big win from this is the Node API / NAPI support , if you write node_modules in nodejs , electron , raycast , edgejs you can reuse it .

https://wasmer.io/posts/edgejs-safe-nodejs-using-wasm-sandbo...

"NAPI allows native Node dependencies to target Node without actually depending on a specific version of Node or V8. NAPI abstracted the V8 JS engine away, by providing JS-like APIs for: creating an object, declaring a property, etc.

NAPI is the contract that all modern native Node modules use to interact with Javascript." [1]

From i read that not "plugin"/module problem but library problem , difference is a lot. It's okay to depend on propietary library but not ok for propietary "plugin"/module.

Apple also doing this for their fork of CrossOver's Wine GPL called Game Porting Toolkit, composed by Wine + propietary D3DMetal DirectX library
