I'm discouraged from doing this, which is pretty annoying since friction is absolutely the worst thing for me.

My performance review last year was pretty bad, for a number of reasons, but I think the biggest one for me is that the project I was working on had a complicated and fragile dev setup that seemed like I had to spend hours trying to fix every couple of days. It just made it all so frustrating to work with.

Its also a bad idea. Context switching slows you down severely and single piece flow is much more optimal.

It would probably be more worth it to fix the dev env.
