Description
You’re going to be under a lot of pressure to make X, Y, and Z, configurable.
Configuration is a perfect example of tragedy of the commons.
Everybody wants to add just a tiny piece of configuration to satisfy their use case. As a result we end up with inconsistently designed tools, with unexpected combinations that don’t work correctly, with bugs and regressions that, when fixed in one configuration, break something else with another configuration.
The requests for configuration are vocal. The requests to stay simple are often silent.
I just wanted to take a moment to say there are some of us who actually appreciate tools with limited scope that don’t attempt to solve everybody’s use case, and instead do a specific thing well.
