AoC is still very much a thing.

What do you mean by AoC? I assume you do not mean Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and I cant think of anything else.
OP meant Advent of Code I assume, in reference to programming on Christmas Eve.
AoC is great as a social activity, tbh. only time I participate is with friends as a goofy coding exercise
AoC shouldn't take all of Christmas (it does however require quite extraordinary algorithmic prowess).
Well it does have an assignment on Christmas Eve naturally. The only time I did AoC that was the day I skipped since honestly it's super low priority compared to cooking/arranging with the family.
