GitHub user mkurz added a comment to the discussion: Replace typesafe config for sconfig for Pekko 2.0.0

The difference here is that Akka itself dropped sslconfig a while ago. So they do not have any interest anymore into maintaining sslconfig - and haven't transfered the repo to someone else. For lightbend config it's different: They use it actively in Akka, just published a bug fix release and state that they continue maintaining the library [here](https://github.com/lightbend/config/?tab=readme-ov-file#maintenance-notes): > The "Typesafe Config" library is an important foundation to how Akka and > other JVM libraries manage configuration.

In Play we also use lightbend config and we do not have issues with it, nor do we get bug reports because of it. It just works. Switching to sconfig on the other hand could cause troubles because they might introduce bugs and breaking changes between releases. So this is why for Play I do not see a reason to switch to sconfig and IMHO such a switch shouldn't be done just because "you can".
