For what it's worth, I love the semantics of many indentation based languages (F# for example) but really dislike editing them. Visually scanning is much easier

For what it's worth, I love the semantics of many indentation based languages (F# for example) but really dislike editing them. Visually scanning is much easier with braces (imo) and it's much easier to navigate braced languages when using a vim-like editor
- teiferer 2mo agoFor somebody unable to empathize with the "braces are easier to scan" part, could yiu explain why? I find it easy to see if things are on the same indentation. I find it much harder to visually scan for opening and closing braces unless syntax highliting makes them scream at me or they are accompanied by ...indentation.
