To many of us it's not about the features which you obliquely refer to when you say "evolve" but about licensing. It's extremely concerning that we're replacing GPL stuff for non GPL, and just as concerning that so many folks don't recognise this point.
Sudoers glob expressions are a horrible footgun and I have little empathy for anyone complaining about their removal, especially when it’s trivial to fix with 3 extra (explicit) lines.
Could someone remind me why people use Ubuntu?

At least the command is still called sudo or run0. Changing it to doas would have been a much more breaking change.
Alas, TFA blocks me with no workaround because I'm using Tor Browser so I can't read about the nature of the changes.
