4 years with Sony… how do I feel?

So 4 years ago I switched from Canon to Sony: https://heatherlarkinphoto.com/why-i-switched-from-canon-to-sony/ And then a year later I wrote a followup while I was still using the a7iii: https://heatherlarkinphoto.com/a-year-with-sony/ But three years since then is plenty of time for a followup, I think!
