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

Welp, back to pip

Unfortunate, wince I trust Astral, and can't say the same about openAI

Btw astral repo has Claude as one of its top contributors

should I be glad I never got off pip?

won't increase your subscriptions, people are dropping out in the millions and no one wants jewPT

This acquisition doesn't make too much sense for the longevity of Astral's software because Astral's software is orthogonal to Codex. It seems more like a acqui-hire. If tomorrow OpenAI were to stop funding Astral's software due to a cash crunch, it would be game over for uv et al. Codex doesn't need uv.

Goddamnit

Astral to Join OpenAI (astral.sh) OpenAI to Acquire Astral(https://openai.com/index/openai-to-acquire-astral/)

what can I say?

I really loved uv, I am happy for the developers at astral but I am sad as a user seeing this :(

Any good alternatives to uv/plans for community fork of uv?
