Strictly speaking, what you did was ‘necro-posting’, but it’s 100% fine if you are adding insight, as mentioned below.

Answer 1

A necropost is any post on a question that is old that doesn't add any new, useful, or relevant information. For example, if you were to post "turtles are my fave" or something else similar on a three year old question about, for example, the locations of all of the fossils in each game.
To avoid necroposting, just try to not post irrelevant information on questions older than a few months. Only post on old questions and answers if you know for a fact that you are adding both new and relevant information.

Answer 2

necropost
to post in a thread that has been "dead", by being inactive for a relatively long period.

Those questions are very old and dead, so answering them is considered necroposting. If the answer changed, I don't see anything wrong with it, though.
