Since you mentioned uv and the topic is virtual environments... I am using uv and it seems great. I don't understand the difference between using "python -m venv .venv; source .venv/bin/activate" and creating a venv with uv and then running the same source command. What does uv offer/integrate that's not present already in python venv module?

It replaces pip and uses venv module under the hood if I understand correctly

  Got it. I'm just unsure whether I can use the other uv features like pin with it? That feature feels like it was added and the benefits or trade-offs weren't documented. At least I don't see it.
