Congrats, I use Rome, it works well and is quite fast. That it's written in Rust is a plus to me (not to cj too hard with the RESF) but I like fast tools and don't believe that the tool should be written in the language it targets, much as Python's data science libraries like numpy aren't themselves written in Python.

I do have one question though, I had been reading this thread on Reddit when Turbopack was announced, that Rome was "run by terrible people." Now I'm not one to take Reddit at face value, but I am interested to hear about what you could clarify regarding the examples they furnished [0].

Exiting news! Congratulations to the Rome team!

I hope that Rome will soon support semicolon removal [1] and lint rules such as explicit-module-boundary-types provided by Deno-lint [2].

God, another generic-sounding non-descriptive already-existing and not-applicable service name. Gotta love the creativity /s
The error message example (under "Rich and Comprehensible Diagnostics") is really impressive.
