User blog comment:MisterWoodhouse/The first migrations to the Unified Community Platform/@comment-26037236-20201202220427

Way too much negativity in these comments. I'm worried about how these people will respond when something significant changes in their real lives. Anyway, this update has been a long time coming. While it won't impact me too much, a lot of wikis will finally have access to a lot of the more recent WikiMedia features. Staying so far in the past is the fastest way to redundancy, especially on an online platform. Being stranded on 1.19 for so long was really annoying while Fandom's competitors could easily take advantage of new software and take larger and popular wikis away from here. There is no reason to be using anything below 1.25 in 2020.
