If the original was removed, there's probably a reason.
This "meme" chooses the dumbest reasons Linux is better when there are so many other options than "updates" and "old app"
It's yet another "Linux good, other OS bad" meme, which is by far my least favorite kind of Linux meme
The reason the original was removed can be found at https://www.kevinswildlife.com/modlog/1016 by searching for the user "Kaped". Apparently it was because that user broke the rules regarding "No bigotry" and "Be respectful" on https://lemmy.ml/ and a mod wanted to "remove content".
I doubt those reasons were actually related to the post this one copies, as it doesn't seem bigoted, and probably isn't much less respectful than other [email protected] content.
Also, memes can still be memes while being dumb. Unsophisticated stuff can also be funny! Perhaps fart jokes and other body humor are examples of this.
