Me too. In terms of general use, digital is nice. Movies, my laptop and phone screens. For games and other things I like to do, analog all the way! Ideally on a CRT, and I have a couple really nice ones. In my embedded type fun mostly hobby activity, analog is just great. It uses fewer resources, is easier, takes as little as one pin to drive a monochrome HDTV display (use the Y component input), and is generally more tolerant and or can be reasonably abused. Yeah, I will miss it. Won't die with me for a very long time yet. Analog audio just is not the same sort of beast. Great gear from the 70's is still entirely relevant in ways that video gear mostly isn't. This no headphone jack thing is a major annoyance. Going digital in video has advantages. No worries. I get that, and am happy to play along. Besides, I can still do a lot of analog for my own purposes, even if that means signalling into some adapter chip or other. So far, and some smart people could change things, but so far, digital audio to replace analog out, basically invalidates otherwise relevant gear, and offers next to nothing besides no wire in return. Gott xharge it, dongle it, pair it, configure it, just fuck it. (One could do no wire with analog means, even optical ones in some cases) It is a real mess for something largely transparent my whole life. Ugh... hate it.
