My personal move away from Stack was somewhat ideological, thinking that Stack’s decision not to support things like backpack and ghcjs was stalling and constraining the ecosystem. Though that’s just why I wanted to move away from it. GHCup definitely made the move much easier, but I think Cabal’s adoption of Nix-style builds and freeze files was also pivotal, solving much of the Cabal hell experience that Stack(age) was mostly created to address in the first place.
