I am aware of a legacy system powering a local business which runs on Rails 1 on a version of debian from 2012 and stores users passwords in plaintext, downcased.

I have tried to explain so many times that this system needs to be replaced urgently not for security reasons but because no one actually knows how to use rails 1 anymore.

I have a Rails 1 product making $10K a year but I don’t have even the ability to log into the box anymore so if even the tiniest thing falls over that revenue is permanently gone for me.

I'm curious about the economics of this - is it big enough to not be worth redeveloping when you consider over the income over say, 3-5 years?

I’m too busy with my kids and my job to deal with it.
