The amount of config.jsons I’ve had to mess with…

Yeah, json is not a good config format. As much as xml is not. Please use something like YAML or TOML.

I never moved away from ini I’ve just been sititng back watching you all re-invent the wheel over and over and over and over and over.

It’s a wheel, it’s supposed to turn over and over and over and infinitum!

I wish more things used Nickel or Dhall for config. I don’t know why I wouldn’t want editor support for type information or the ability to make functions in my non-Turing-complete config to eliminate boilerplate on my end.
