This is true, but kind of exaggerated. I can't run some windows 7 apps on Windows 10. I have been able to run some backalley Linux software from an html 1.0 site designed in the 90's no problem.

On both platforms backwards compatibility is a little hit or miss, but yeah Linux is worse.

Yes, some apps might not run. Yet some Win16 do actually run on Windows 10.
