Banning is a little extreme, but I agree that title is unhelpful. Better title would be "Ruff is a fast Python linter written in Rust" (which is a slight paraphrase from one of the subheads).



Or "Ruff creators found Astral Software Inc." or something.


Editoralizing is discouraged and your post will end up edited to match the original URL’s title either way.


especially when it doesnt seem to be the ruff founder who submitted this particular post. maybe dang or someone will rename it something more appropriate but from hn comments its pretty clear what the context is
