amtm LONG time Asus/Merlin, first time amtm -- reassurance please

There are new Asuswrt features causing issues with excellent add-ons from the past.

I'm sorry, but Guest Network Pro may be propagated to... some nodes, but YazFi was much easier to use, simpler and with more useful features. Not to mention how many people praised FlexQoS for gaming, streaming, etc., how much time the developers invested to make it better than ever and... now Adaptive QoS is just broken on the new routers. This work-in-progress building of "pro" features on top of limited and unpredictable compatibility "mesh" black box caused disturbance in regular user base, custom firmware users and scripts ecosystem community.

I heard about FlexQoS and was like, this is useful until, I got a Wi-Fi 7 router, yeahhh didn't age well.

My honest opinion, not really. But that answer is subjective and will change based on who you ask and what experience they had... ScMerlin was the only one I've ever seen RMerlin speak out against.

It should be noted - the functions of scMerlin aren’t the issue. In fact it’s quite useful.
From what I recall, the issue was that JakYaz modified some html properties that resulted in how menus on the left side of the WebUI are displayed.

@ExtremeFiretop - maybe add a configuration option to disable this behavior?

It's not a bad idea.

I haven't seen the new method break anything yet, but might be a smart way to help curb potential issues down the road and give some control to users that might be concerned about such a thing.
