Clang now makes binaries an original Pi B+ can't run
This is true for Windows. Free software has helped keep operating systems like Windows XP and 7 still modern and secure, and many applications have been patched to work on these older systems. Here is for instance a port of Firefox Quantum to XP and a fork of Chromium maintaining support for 7, but I like to stick to the last Ungoogled Chromium version because I hate Google.

Supermium – Chromium fork for Win 2003 and newer
If that's a concern for you, there are themes for GTK3 and GTK4 that replicate classic 3D widgets and remove much of the excess padding in modern apps. https://github.com/B00merang-Project/Windows-95 https://github.com/grassmunk/Chicago95 (You should install both; Chicago95 is more actively developed, but B00merang gives you a GTK+4 theme that's currently missing from Chicago95.) Works reasonably well as a daily-driver, giving you a similar look to the modern SerenityOS GUI on a standard Linux system. Even the modern GTK+4 "responsive" apps work as designed, with some non-critical graphical quirks.

OS/2 Warp, PowerPC Edition
I bloody want my Linux and apps on it to look like this or something of this flavour. Most retro themes are poor quality shams (Chicago95[1] is the only good one, yet still not perfect). I feel like I would gladly pay serious money for a really high quality conversion of all the parts, including themes for all widget libraries and no quirks.
