Comment on This laptop released in 2016 no longer receive OS updates. Which means I can't update Chrome Browser

I actually have a few of these chromebooks. Asus 202c from 2016. They’re EoL, so they don’t get OS updates. Which means the Play Store is also outdated.

Overall, they’re pretty nifty. Battery life is still solid. Keyboard and case is pretty durable.

I’ve reformatted one with Linux. Another is Chromebook + side loaded for coding. This one is just for browsing and taking notes.

But just the thought that some old person buying a computer and going, “Lemme pick up these Google Things that are $100” only to end up with these errors makes me sad.
