less clutter/fewer buttons: reduced risk of legacy vulnerabilities

[lammel-hub]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. With v.13 a compatibility mode with older versions was introduced for the rare need of connecting a newer assistant with an older assisted. It is unclear to me what the use case for this would be, due to the following considerations:

• If assisted can connect with assistant, then it should be able to download the latest version instead of using an older version
• If the OS of assisted requires an older version, then that OS might be at risk and should not be online without first being upgraded to support v13 or later of Dayon!

Describe the solution you'd like Context: Connection Removal of function: compatibility mode

Describe alternatives you've considered If the function is needed, then this could be considered a rare need, and thus could be moved to Context: Settings to reduce clutter of Context: Connection.

Additional context There might be good reasons that I am not aware of, then this feature request should be ignored.

I get your point, but from my experience, the assisted often depend the assistant to manage/update their programs :)

Especially versions before Lucky Lobster VII were installed using downloaded binaries - as at this time only Linux users had the privilege to get self-updating binaries from a store.

This is why I prefer to keep the compatibility mode for a while.

OK, I understand. To consider: moving it to Context: Settings, as there will be fewer and fewer that need to use the function over time (last version before Lucky Lobster VII was released 4 years ago - in a few weeks time)
