Microsoft no longer supports Sharepoint versions 2010/2013. See SharePoint Server 2013 - Microsoft Lifecycle and Microsoft SharePoint Server 2010 - Microsoft Lifecycle.This feature has been in maintenance mode for a very long time and there is just a very small user base. Considering the high costs for us in terms of tests maintenance, we decided to deprecate it.
