Developer Reactions
Some developers are excited about the update, while others are more skeptical.
The amount of fascination that people have with these ‘grammar nazi’ bots — some of them implementing completely arbitrary ‘rules’ and some of them disagreeing with others on what ‘good’ Python code should look like — doesn’t stop to amaze me.
Others are more positive, wishing that other languages had similar tools.
I wish Go had something like Ruff! A lot of languages are getting amazing tool but Go has a very fragmented ecosystem with a lot of tools but none of them feel as high quality has the likes of Ruff, Oxc, Biome or even PHP’s Mago
Conclusion
The update has sparked a lively discussion among developers, with some seeing it as a significant improvement and others as a potential distraction from more pressing issues.
