@kgf@hachyderm.io @xgranade@wandering.shop I don't want to tell you what to do, so apologies if this is unwelcome "advice". But I find it helpful to remember the premise of free software is that what we've already got we own forever and can do with it as we like.
We don't have to accept their "new version" with slop.
If the thing we already had met our needs, we can continue using it forever and nobody can take that away from us.

@dalias@hachyderm.io @xgranade@wandering.shop Oh yeah, pinning to a version I can accept and coasting with it is certainly the mode I'm in until I can be arsed to do otherwise. Especially for statically-generated sites, I'm willing to accept that. It may be a bit of a harder case to make in cases where there are dynamic server-side endpoints involved, which may become subject to vulnerabilities that are only patched upstream post-slopification.
