@davecb@hachyderm.io I don't like YAML all that much but at least it has comments and forces people to write multi-line things and so on. It's more or less a tolerable universal solvent at this point, although it's not actively good the way a configuration file format could be.
(If you don't need nesting there are simpler general formats like TOML.)

@cks@mastodon.social I vaguely remember doing nesting in toml. [servers] [servers.alpha] ip = "10.0.0.1" dc = "eqdc10" [servers.beta] ip = "10.0.0.2" dc = "eqdc20" Are we talking about the same thing?
