Linux: Of course you can use these syscalls designed in the 70s. Windows: Compatibility with what? No, you must use these newly-designed functions that exist only on windows. It’s for your own protection.
Tell me again how proprietary software gives a shit about compatibility.
“Backwards compatibility” is a totally different thing from “cross compatibility”. Of course proprietary software is going to be less cross-compatible.
