I hope the trend of backwards compatibility on #Switch2 stays with whatever #Nintendo does next.
Hopefully gone are the days of losing all your eShop games when a new generation comes out.

This post covers things I've also felt about Hugo for ages, poster child for something that should just be left alone already.

Sometimes Software is Done, or Why Hugo Why
I didn’t sit down this morning planning to write a grouchy blog post about Hugo. When I first used Hugo I loved it. It was fast. It was simple. It just worked, as much as any software does, and it solved a real problem. It was done. But people kept working on it. I’m sure that it has been improved in countless ways. But along the way it has gotten bigger and more complicated, and has broken backwards compatibility repeatedly.

IMO the reason why people yearn for tools that generate code is that programming is broken—everything now is giant layer cakes of huge, complex and intransparent frameworks designed by and for large teams in giant tech companies.
The same tech companies that flooded programming with overly complex tools, endless toolchains, new programming languages du jour every few years, required backwards-compatibility breaking updates and mandatory design overhauls are now selling you “AI” to generate code for the mess they made.
