Things are out of date because things that are working don’t get money and time allotted to them to update them.
People still run Windows XP because there’s a piece of software that never got updated to run on Windows 7, much less Windows 10.
There’s those Java apps that are stuck on Java 6. Websites that still need IE6. Things that use the unsafe versions of stuff like HTTPS...because Visual Basic 6 doesn’t support them out of the box.

But it still works. So it keeps going.
