You forgot "that's the only viable option provided by the vendor." Some people are reliant on certain software as a requirement and forced into certain standards imposed on them. They don't exactly choose the standard, they have a functional requirement and the only way to achieve it in some budget/timeline may be with a third party solution that uses, say YAML.
- Draiken 3y agoYeah I've been there personally too. But why aren't we complaining about the vendor then? I find it weird that we love to complain about the YAML format instead of the projects that chose it. Given some of the emotions I saw in other responses in this thread, it looks more like a venting exercise. Which is fine, I guess. I was simply curious on why suddenly it got propped up again.
- pavel_lishin 3y agoIf ten thousand vendors use one subpar language, it makes sense to try to swing opinion away from the language, rather than play whackamole with eleven thousand vendors.
- PH95VuimJjqBqy 3y agobecause the complaint is with yaml.
