gollark: As a personal preference thing I don't use semicolons where possible but do like brackets.
gollark: I prefer them to just indentation mostly, indentation-based syntax can be flaky.
gollark: Because YAML tries to look "simple", it's actually wildly complex, problem-prone, and has weird quirks. Like Go, sort of.
gollark: TOML is, in my opinion, nicer for configs. It's basically standardized INI.
gollark: Also, possibly partly due to point 3, many (dynamic) languages actually implement YAML parsing in a way which allows arbitrary code execution by default. I think Python's yaml library does it unsafely by default (EDIT: see here: https://www.arp242.net/yaml-config.html though PyYaml at least appears to be changing this now).
