- uv is a cool tool, but Astral has signaled their intention to have it tie in nicely to paid services.
- that's a nice moat!
- Andre & friends saw that in the Python community (and uv's success) and decided they could do the same for Ruby
- Their collective announces rv and now wants to make us dependent on them & friends for Ruby Gems.
- After Hashicorp and others, I'm extremely wary of orgs luring me in with free shit. Hashicorp is maybe the lightest example of this but they're very intentional about enterprise-walling business-essential features.
- I don't want the Ruby ecosystem dependent on one party or even a tiny collective of people. This is just as bad to me as the Ruby Central situation right now.
