Jumped the ship just a year ago or so, Slate Drums 5 on pandemic sale finally made me do it (no 32 bit version), and now I also use Helix Native so no coming back really. I know bridging works reasonably well, but I installed 64 bit versions of my old favourites and ditched the rest, sessions with bridged plugins never seem to perform as good as native ones.
(I keep 32 bit Reaper installed in case I want to revisit an old project and not be surprised everything is suddenly a crackling mess after bridging)
