I'm from a generation who had to use VSS for a few years. The sticks are pretty long these days, even the ones you get from github.

I will say that SourceSafe had one advantage: You could create "composite" proxy workspaces.
You could add one or two files from one workspace, and a few from another, etc. The resulting "avatar" workspace would act like they were all in the same workspace. It was cool.
However, absolutely everything else sucked.
I don't miss it.
