Half of my shiny living dex is from pokemon GO

Unless they know how to RNG abuse, I'd imagine most people's shinies are from Pokemon Go or from Gen 8/9 since shinies are so much easier to find nowadays. Sure there were methods like Pokeradar in Gen 4/6, DexNav and Chain Fishing in Gen 6, SOS battles and Ultra Wormholes in Gen 7, etc., but shiny has basically been getting easier and easier.

a shiny is a shiny
at the end of the day it's just a cosmetic variation
some are better, some are worse

They're not "easier" to find, you're just encountering x15 more than in anything Gen 8 or below, excluding Arceus (as it generates all pokémon on entering a particular map and doesn't despawn them unless caught or defeated). And even then, RNG is still RNG, I've reset countless sandwiches because it didn't spit up any shiny, much less an outbreak or isolated target hunt shiny and still have wasted more time than what's healthy looking for the things, even with the 15 on-screen, the shiny visible in the overworld and picnic resets refreshing everything at once.
>third day of date resetting to the Girafarig and Farigiraf outbreaks I found a couple days ago for intelligent mark Girafarig and any funky marked Farigiraf

Not gonna lie, assuming outbreaks continue to be a thing and shiny farming continues to be possible through them, I'm gonna likely end up replacing any and all GO shinies with in-game hunted ones. Think I ended up hunting shinies of everything in Paldea that could be hunted even if I had a GO version, due to them not connecting Home to SV immediately.

Never mind that the newer games allow you to avoid encountering the mons you aren’t looking for, so you can more easily hunt something specific.

So easier to find? Got it.

Not in the slightest, or I wouldn't have sank the hours I have into Violet looking the cunts.
If you still played the games instead of cried on the internet the games don't care you grew up, you'd understand this. As is stands, you don't play and bitch the kiddyshit game series doesn't care mummy''s special little spacktard grew up but pogeymans doesn't want to cater to it.

I don't know why they got rid of the sparkle sound from Sword and Arceus.
The lighting engine of S/V tends to give me false positives on some shinys.
