for me, moving to use-package was fairly painless - my init file was only 20+ years worth of accumulated tweaks and configuration!  Was well worth the effort though as it also fixed some annoying 'quirks' I had sort of got use to.

WRT Emacs 27 - I gave up bleeding edge Emacs a few years back. Prefer the stability and there wasn't much in new versions that justified the regular updates and rebuilds etc.

Yes, I've heard good thing about use-package.  My problem is that my
.emacs etc. is a 35 year old mess.  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.  I track emacs
development for the excitement!  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!

thanks,
