I don't understand why everybody likes TOML so much. It's so inflexible... but maybe that's the point?

  • @camertron@ruby.social it sort of is. It’s a reaction to YAML’s flexibility (and consequent complexity). Because we need a decent human readable format that maps to a hash and the YAML spec is like 80 pages long and gives me rage. No, JSON doesn't count. You know why. https://toml.io/en/v0.1.0#but-why
