I think this has been left open by accident, or do you want us to comment?

There's allegedly a rumor running wild in parts of the community that FS22 won't support mods. That's a lie. FS22 will support mods. That's the main point of the podcast.

I can't believe anyone would spread that rumour let alone believe it and pass it on.

Probably the very vocal “GIANTS is a bunch of sissies that somehow have lasted over a decade and have less brains than a chicken” crowd.
And it probably would still sell, FS15 console did and I have a friend who still plays on 360 with 15 (and 13) just the ever growing enthusiast community probably wouldn’t.
FS15 & FS19 Platinum Edition PC (and War Thunder, Gaijin is way worse than GIANTS ever has been accused of being)

But most important note from this podcast was the info that FS19 mods needs only few changes to be available on FS22, this means quite fast and easy mod converting.
I dont recall them saying anything of that nature, What they did say say was that they didnt want to release modding documentation too early and then make changes in the game that would result in modders having to redo mods that they had already been working on based on the documentation

(Phew!) I'm not the only one, then. Thanks @Drmattymd. I've listened three times now hearing absolutetly nothing about mod conversions.
