What's interesting to me is, anecdotally, the people I know who are the biggest K&R haters are people who started with K&R, then had to switch to Allman for a significant length of time, and then had to switch back to K&R.
- drewmate 9y agoThat probably tells you more about the haters than the brace style. That was my career path, and while I've gotten used to reading Allman braces, I've heavily relied on tooling (especially Visual Studio) to auto-format my K&R (or 1TBS) braces for whatever project I'm in. Same thing with tabs/spaces. There are lots of sane ways to read code, but consistency is key. It's hard to change muscle memory in how I type, though, so I think auto format is the way to go.
