    Yeah, currently going through this with a legacy authentication platform. 100% correct

    But, if you are willing to just break everything and fix only the parts that you realize as important afterwards, and not offer any compromises or solutions to legacy shit. You can just replace it quickly. I think that’s what is going to happen here.

    If things are actually broken, things get fixed a lot quicker than if you tell people you are going to slowly migrate out.

      This is the right way to do any of those migrations. Insisting on absurd legacy capabilities is one of those things people will say it’s important and want to bill for but adds no value. Just load archive data and start fresh with the workflows that are still pertinent.
