Read the agile manifesto and tell me you don’t want to do those things…

  Yeah but I’m looking for proven alternatives. No one says agile is perfect

      Well, for me it isn't? I don't do project work, I am a maintainer at heart. If I am doing my job well, anybody who I think of as my customer will be happy if they need to interact with me as little as possible, because my well documented processes and tools are on-point :D

  Well, there is quite some difference between what the agile manifesto describes and what the 5000-page Agile Handbook (TM) of some international consulting firm describes.

    Dave Thomas, one of the creators of the agile manifesto, has a talk where he expresses his disappointment with consultants twisting the manifesto into a cult-like industry. He calls this the agile industrial complex and says that anyone using agile with capital A is not referring to the manifesto but the industry and are selling you that.

    Ignore those handbooks they’re selling you snake oil. The original agile manifesto though is still valid. Guiding principles is all you need
