Last gen, did you survive YLOD and/or RROD?

[S.Peelman]

Technically no then, given your OP.

I have a fat launch PS3 that YLoD'd a year or two ago. So I guess that it lived from 2007 to 2014, 7 years. I fixed it myself though, after running around frantically for a moment. Took the whole thing apart, cleaned it, reapplied some new, good, cooling-paste (of which there was none left), heated and cooled the main chips and put it back together. Everything good. Works like a charm, even better (read: quieter) than before. I felt like such a genius.

So I'd personally still count that as "surviving" regardless. Dodged a bullet sure, but survived.
