- OJFord 6y agoYes, 'for Go' would be much more informative here. It doesn't even make that clear in the readme, had to scroll until I got to an example that included imports to tell.
- stevekemp 6y agoMarketing. First of all it was "made with love", then it was "for humans". Next year it will be something else.

- The_rationalist 6y agoIt's still a valuable information, it claims that they focus on user friendliness and fight clutter/cognitive overhead / boilerplate. How would you alternatively communicate this?
- aldanor 6y ago"... - Go Logging Made Simple" or whatever else. There's many ways to communicate this without the stupid "for humans" tag.
- ViViDboarder 6y agoEspecially when it logs as JSON by default. That’s certainly not for humans but great for machines. I see it can log on a more human friendly console format as well though.
