Longest lived non embedded system I've worked with was a Linux server with an uptime from 2007 through 2019 serving as a L3 router. Amazingly, after shutting it down, it turned on again :)

Yes. I forgot to maintain a Linux server after setting autoupdates, and it kept itself up for years. I’m ashamed of not monitoring the potential breaches on it.

Completely off-topic but yesterday I upgraded my Debian 10 home server to 11 and it rebooted fine! It had a 132 day uptime on it.

I run a unify controller on docker, pihole, influxdb, grafana and a bunch of other small scripts. I did need to upgrade my collectd Python modules to 3 but that was it.

I'm scared to even think about the NAS in my attic. It's running firmware based on a long dead version of Debian. I have no idea how long it's been running without a reboot but I'm guessing 2+ years.
