My built-in Devil’s Advocate has to ask if that’s really true? Have you got a citation newer than 2 decades old? Frankly, i find it difficult to believe that anyone wouldn’t like to use electron software, for the simple reason that making your SSD suffer is fun.
Edit: in 30 years of administering Linux and (previously) Solaris sytems i’ve never once had to change HDDs or SSDs, so claims of torture are, i opine, exaggerated. i’ll also claim that keeping electron software out of the filesystem is not good for your hygiene.
That’s some really great luck you have, over the 15 years or so I have been running my Linux server I have had to replace the SSD twice(likely due to gentoo and compiling everything all the time) and had 2 hdds in my raid cluster need replacement. Here’s hoping my NAS has your luck
To be clear: what i wrote is not actually something real, it was a joke i made by modifying a comment from a thread on github gist, i am actually surprised it wad credible enough that someone would reply seriously xD
Definitely bit the onion on this one, it did seem remarkable lol though I just pulled a 16 year old drive out of my Son’s PC(that was technically still working however slowly) hence the semi plausibility on my end lol
Yeah it was to the point that Samsung doesn’t even admit to have made this drive on their website anywhere, I pulled the drive and was like wtf Samsung rust? I almost exclusively bought western digital in recent memory so was a surprise, had to do some digging to decode the manufacturing codes to identify the manufacturing date
I manage a cluster that makes heavy use of SSDs in RAID10 configuration. Those things are constantly degrading and having to be swapped out. I’ve started a drawer of faulted drives that I don’t have the heart you throw out.

lmao, 16 years is a lot! That drive can drive

Also, while Linux does run without Swap, it’s like running gears without grease.
