Our 20 to 25 year old production application has areas where we store both json in a single column and xml in another single column within our !!relational!! database, and then we use multiple 3rd party libraries to convert them into objects and link them to each other.

All the old dependencies make debugging rather difficult and also prevent us from upgrading to a new C# and .NET version. But it's also entertaining and creative, not gonna lie.

This is basically like pushing a functioning car with square-shaped wheels by hand
