LinkedIn thinks so. Their tech stack is so over engineered and spaghetti that they spent a hundred million and years trying to move into Azure and were beaten by how bloated and unmovable the tech stack is.

Theyre still using python 2 and centOS in tons of systems.

They just started using github last year.

Their tech stack is easily over a decade old.

There's 1 service on py2, with a plan to migrate because of the move off of centos. centos deprecation is in progress.
