I work for a company that has a .dev domain, and nearly worked for another that has one as well. I think .dev is perfectly fine for developer tooling websites but it probably doesn't have super wide appeal. It's a great way for a specific niche to get good branding. Getting a .com is absurd these days. If there is a viable, short, and memorable alternative TLD, it is often worth considering. Do the TLDs hold value? I'm not sure, I think that's a fairly tough argument to make with .com as well.
