The switch to strict HTML compilation is just not cool, and actively prevents upgrading sites which need to deal with remote content that is not written in strict HTML.
I also wish there could be a general purpose content processing API so I can plug a different format than markdown (such as typst)
Unfortunately, I've also come across .astro files that I'm not allowed to touch and yet have to work with them (some internal corporate dinosaur which has not been updated for a while).
For my personal site, it was a 5 minute work, as usual :)
