So let me guess: "modern" here is indicates a shitty new thing that doesn't work as well as the old thing.

Funny how the software industry has managed to turn the connotation of "modern" for me from "neutral/slightly positive" to "definite negative" in around a decade.



Same here. Hey, one positive: It shows that, greybeard as I am, I'm still able to adapt to changing circumstances. (Well, at least circumstances changing over the course of a decade or so; no guarantee for anything faster than that.)
