I'm not a Luddite or technophobe. I just know that after 466 years the thing on the left can be read fine. 📜 The thing top-right is 15 years old & uses tech that already no longer comes standard on computers. 💿 And the 30-yr-old thing bottom-right needs specialized antique hardware & software to read. 💾

I think with the antique floppy data loses fidelity over time. Data is lost if you leave the drive sittting.
