I already preferred Paizo's writing over Hasbro/WOTC, and now D&D is going to be increasingly derivative "oops! All Underdark!" IP cliches in tighter and tighter recursive loops of repetition. Yeah pass.
Paizo writes better books in general. I saw a copy of the new 2024 rules, so I flipped through, but was frustrated they basically did the same layout as the 2014 books.
My understanding of 5e's adventures is them being almost exclusively rehashes of 2e and 3.x adventures, so it really won't be that different.
Hasbro/WOTC has been rehashing the same tired shit for quite a while now, so it isn't much of a loss to move on to Paizo.
