There's a swarm on HN that upvotes anything uv related and downvotes anything questioning it's added value as compared to pip
I noticed the comment from andy99 got several downvotes (became grey) and mine here also immediately got some.
It’s a bit like if anyone who said you should switch to desktop Linux got yelled at for being in the pocket of Big Systemd.
“if you like it, use it” is well and good, but haranguing people who explain why they like/use what they use is just as lame as the purported cult defense of uv or whatever tool is popular.
I dunno man, fads and stupid fixations happen in software sometimes, but most of the time hyped tools are hyped because they’re better.
