So begins the uv-Bun war.

Well this sucks. So the most evil new company has acquired the most exciting 'open' source company. The vibes are about to get bad. Hopefully this speeds up the next phase of AI destroying the economy and everything good about tech.

If I were to engage in Python development, what's the alternative to uv?

Poetry was the best alt-package manager before uv came along. That said - uv completely outclassed it.

Looks like I can wrap my head around it, thanks.

What are you having an issue with? Environments? pyenv. Dependency management? pip+requirements.

Ugh, this isn't good.

I hate relying on anything that is controlled by a single company. Considering that Astral is basically brand new in the python timeline, it is concerning that they are already being acquired.

On the other hand, UV is so fast that it makes up for anything I find annoying about it.

Undisclosed amount?

Oh no! This is actually terrible. Get ready for "premium tooling only available in Codex(TM)".

Another HN darling falls from grace. But hey, the next one will not follow the same steps!
