You have to chuck it in the bin and buy a new one, obviously. That's the state of the startphone world today, if you want to keep up on security updates

This is lamentable and I'd love to see longer periods of support for older devices, but I'm not sure what the ideal state is - beyond being able to install your own OS on your device, which will still require some level of support from someone.

What's reasonable - 5 years of support? 10?
