This episode is about a pressing issue for many Joomla 3 website owners who use either of the JoomSEF or MijoSEF SEF URLs extensions. As neither have a Joomla 4 version, upgrading to Joomla 4 means losing:

Losing all SEF URLs is particularly catastrophic as it means losing all rankings in Google and other search engines. At best, with a successful set of redirects, the traffic loss can be limited to a few weeks.

But there's a solution for this, using sh404SEF and its JoomSEF/MijoSEF importer. While sh404SEF itself is of course not Joomla 4-compatible, once you have it, it's easy to transition to 4SEF + 4SEO.

And these can work both on Joomla 3 and 4 transparently. 

So upgrading JoomSEF/MijoSEF sites to Joomla 4 is not exactly straightforward, but it's not that hard either, and most importantly does not require extensive or technical manual work.
