Retcons I made in TROS

It's true The Rise of Skywalker disappointed me. But, actually, I did not retcon a lot of things in my new series. What did I truly retcon?

Here they are in order:

• Palpatine lived by actually escaping Hell, and was hiding for the demons and the Republic simultaneously.
• Rey never Mind Tricked Finn, the Dark One told him to stay away with his own voice to scare him.
• Finn couldn't help in the ship tug-o-war because a Knight of Ren fought him to a standstill, and Finn used Rey's staff. The Knight was a distraction.
• Before Hux died, to undermine Kylo and gain Finn's trust, he gave the latter a file with the locations of plenty of Stormtroopers and their real families.
• The reason why no regular Stormtroopers appeared in the final battle: Finn and Jannah used the file and made a speech, and they caused a Stormtrooper uprising to make up for all the troopers they had to kill in the past. The revolting forces clashed with the Sith Troopers. Finn also used the Force even more in the last battle.
• The Force Dyad's nature. Because I hate that stupidity and glorification of abuse and everything it stands for, I turned it into a Twilight imprint that binds two souls, and is made by an evil worse than Palpatine. It broke with Kylo's death because that love was never true. It was a plan of the Dark One to eliminate Palpatine and conquer the Galaxy himself. Even that kiss in the end was a mixture of gratitude and the Dark One's control fully taking over for a second.

Yeah, not a lot actually. Everything else still happened, but might be painted in a different light.
