I think one of the more insane things Microsoft have done is their product management of MS Visio.It became so insanely expensive my work started making us apply for 3 month licenses until we gave up and found something else.About 15 years ago my Industry was using MS Visio for every diagram.But they updated the GUI entirely and nobody could be bothered with the new format.Now people use DrawIO and MS Visio is forgotten.
I don't know what you're doing and I feel all of your Visio pain, but have you tried typst?
I am a deep enjoyer of Typst. I love it and I use it absolutely everywhere that I can.CeTZ is a really good package, but I still reach for a tool like Omnigraffle if I need to make a really complicated diagram.
