This is definitely a paid ad. Check out the company cited in the post. It's a VC funded attempt to extend/embrace/extinguish the current tooling. [0]

Happy to report that this definitely isn't a paid ad. The Home Assistant team did this on their own. I helped out by building uv for some of the architectures they needed: https://github.com/astral-sh/uv/pull/2417

You can't embrace/extend/extinguish OSS with other OSS. I have my doubts about Astral, but the software they make is OSS.

Yes, and Linux was an attempt to extend/embrace/extinguish Unix.

Astral is a company but that doesn’t make this an ad without evidence you didn’t include. Do you personally know that this was anything other than organic praise from a happy user?
