for me, moving to use-package was fairly painless - my ini= t file was only 20+ years worth of accumulated tweaks and configuration!=C2= =A0 Was well worth the effort though as it also fixed some annoying 'qu= irks' I had sort of got use to.

WRT Emacs 27 - I gav= e up bleeding edge Emacs a few years back. Prefer the stability and there w= asn't much in new versions that justified the regular updates and rebui= lds etc.=C2=A0

Yes, I've heard good thing about use-package.=C2=A0 My problem i= s that my
.emacs etc. is a 35 year old mess.=C2=A0 I need to start over but of course=
there is incredible inertia in doing so.

Well, you'll see from my signature that I use v27.=C2=A0 I track= emacs
development for the excitement!=C2=A0 The problem is that I have one system=
where I am still using v25.

Anyway, I think this has gone completely off-topic for the org list!
