@adamchainz I've definitely been part of the problem multiple times in the past. In my defense, it's surprising how many services replace a fully featured API with a far more elegant, better documented one that's missing some critical feature (although I'd be willing to bet most other cases are just people who don't want to figure out authentication with OAuth, and honestly: can't blame 'em).
@gordoooo_z @adamchainz also 95% of the developer documentation is written against v1 as well as 99.99% of code examples elsewhere on the internet.

@adamchainz If you would implement the other 75% of the functionality of V1, we might start migrating. Especially if you fix the performance problems in V2.
