Tried to write a little Haskell for fun and holy shit the developer experience is a mess.

I tried a couple of weeks ago to use the new Cabal 3.0 stuff to see how it was, and my dependencies exploded on version bounds of some internal dependency that I didn't care about. Retreated back to the comfort of Rust and Cargo. Fingers crossed they can figure it all out! 😰

You could replace "cargo 3.0" with the flavor of the month and tweet this verbatim at any point in the past decade.

It's likely that the Hackage trustees can fix this for you if you open an issue on their tracker github.com/haskell-infra/

I mean, yes. But also it isn't too much to ask that installing packages works as well as it does in any other modern programming language (golang ofc exempted).
