You literally can't bake textures with an alpha channel anymore, baking in general is more tedious, and the material "node" system is absolutely overkill if you're not trying to render something within Blender and just want to put the texture on the thing.
Texture atlasing is absolutely necessary for my workflow, so I'm sticking to 2.79 as well. I don't need any of the other fixes and features. I only use 2.93 when working on my world.
