I guess it’s all relative. One of my code bases still has pylint running with only a couple custom lint rules, that one is slow as hell.

As for version bumping, maybe it’s just a me thing, but I hard fix a version and only update occasionally. Sure each update brings new warnings, but most of them are valid and if you only do it a couple times a year… not that big a deal.

Try ruff instead of pylint. It will open your eyes to how performant software can actually be. All of us that have been working in python and JavaScript for too long have really forgotten.
We use ruff for everything that isn’t a custom rule.

The only thing I found it ‘missing’ was an indentation check (it’s in preview, I don’t turn on preview rules), but I realized it doesn’t matter because we also have a formatter running on everything.
