Why don't they remove all the old modules? I feel like they're frustrating all their new users.

Legacy reasons I suppose, it would suck to go back to a photo you took a while back, only to find out all your edits are gone because the modules you used are removed.

Some modules get a "deprecated" warning, which imo more modules could use, but there are probably still edge cases where someone might prefer the old modules

Oh yeah I guess it could just only show them on old edits.

I think they are hidden by default with the scene-referred layout, but they will show up when searching. It's a tough situation UX wise

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
