I hated every second of it and it’s ugly as hell. Factorio is king.

(Trolling because Op is so super sensitive about it)

Affinity really is a great alternative and it’s relatively cheap. There was a concern that when Canvas bought the company they would force a subscription model on it but apparently that’s not the case (yet).

Bring back chopping off hands for thieves.

Judging by the comments in this thread this will be the one defining mistake that kills Microsoft.

Work takes all the fun out of coding for me. I haven’t touched a side project for a year.

That’s so sassy I kinda respect it.

Too bad for those who fall for it.

No arrays are not allowed. Attributes can only be strings. But the children are kind of an array.

There is actually an extension to JSON: https://json5.org/

Unfortunately only very few tools support that.

Since XML can have attributes and children, it’s not as easy to convert to JSON.

Your JSON example is more akin to:

<address street_address="21 2nd Street" city="New York" ...></address>

JSON not supporting comments is a human rights violation

Exactly what I keep saying. Do they get the job done? Yes or No? Very simple question in my opinion.

I used Soundiiz and it works pretty good. Gives you an overview after the import so you can see what’s missing or wrong.
