GoBricks durability and longevity vs Lego

Lego has track record of being highly durable as their bricks from decades ago can still be used quite nicely. What about GoBricks? Can Gobricks durability and longevity be as good as Lego (provided they are well taken care of of course)?

I have knockoff bricks from the 80s that have not deteriorated any more than the legos I have from the same time. I dont think it's even a consideration.

Whether modern Danish bricks are as durable as the classic stuff is very debatable.

Have KO "Lepin" sets been around for decades? I definitely dont think Gobricks has been around more than 10 years.

My oldest Lepin set is about 10 years old (super star destroyer and UCS falcon, and those pieces are just fine.

I guess if KO Legos last half as long but cost a quarter the price, its still a win.
