There are plenty of answers in this thread that lists applications that have kept being updated over the years, which I don’t know if it is a valid answer, it depends on the definition of the question, and how you interpret the software of Theseus.
I am going to be semi pedantic, no binary updates but config updates and compabillity layers are ok.
I still play Unreal Tournament 2004, I have three copies, one on CD, one on Steam and one on GOG, it is an awesome game, that even has an official native Linux version with an installer on the CD.
It is fantastically fun, well balanced and just amazing.
You have to edit the config files to support modern resolutions, and make it connect to the community master server, but that is a one time change and then you can just start blasting.
The game is available on Archive.org.
Sublime Text. Used it to write web a year or two before VS Code was released (2015). I never started with VS Code because of that and still use Sublime Text for anything that does not require an IDE.
Fellow sublime enjoyer! Used it for typesetting LaTeX since 2014

Easy - VLC
Over 20 years, easy. I started my PC life as a Mac user, switched to Windows for gaming, then switched to Linux for freedom. VLC has followed me the whole way and been a must-install since the first time I used it.
mpv is superior imo, especially on Linux.
VLC for me too. What a great program it is, never a single problem.
Linux, Firefox, Thunderbird, vi/vim, VLC, Mutt (only occasionally), Irssi
WinRAR. And I paid for it.
the only reason to use winrar as far as im aware is ignorance
why are you using it
let him enjoy his WinRAR. after all, he is the one who paid for it.
Blender3D. My first use of Blender was… I think… Version 2.49b. The UI was… Quite something back then.
Only ten years?
KDE, better then ever.
Definitely MediaMonkey, though I’ve had it for 16 years instead of 10 after paying $40 for a lifetime license. The license format changed once and I’ve misplaced my key a couple of times, but their support has always been great at getting me back on track.
7zip, notepad++, ScreenShotAssistant, git
There’s a “modern” fork of 7zip that works better on Windows 11 and it’s called NanaZip.
I don’t think any software I regularly used has changed since 2016( lemmy being an obvious exception. Rip reddit). Maybe home assistant. Not sure when that started. Most used: Obviously gnu+Linux+gnome. Gimp, beersmith, sabnzdb, deluge, plex. Vscode, Firefox. I’m sure many others
Is it stupid to say Linux
No it isn’t.
arch btw
Got 'em (☞ﾟヮﾟ)☞
Caustic 3 on my mobile.
I’ve still not found a better android DAW. (Anyone have suggestions? )
KDE.
It’s the only one I have used more than 10 years and loved the entire time. Everything else has been replaced, not loved or not used for 10 years.
Krita (a digital painting and Photoshop alternative). I’ve been enjoying using it for probably 10 years now, and it’s only continued to steadily improve. Fantastic program.
