What’s the replacement for Modifier.align on alpha 4?

It's still there, but you need to have an explicit scope receiver. E.g ColumnScope

Oh 😕 Pretty verbose

Something like that?

Nope, see these threads:

You can't just use align with any layout composable, it only works with certain ones. They are changing the API to make it very difficult to use them in the wrong context, by forcing you to be in the right scope to get access to them.
