IMHO there is little point of these conversion projects. It screams of "look at me, see what I made" and when the attention goes down a little nothing was ever pushed to the repo ever again.
Perhaps I am out of touch, but a project with author/s that have passion for every line, function and purpose, feels more real and worth my trust to spend time using it.
I'd go even further: 'look at me, see what I paid for'.
This isn't much different than the 'builder brained' coworker who is obsessed with creating technical debt, not owning it. Throwing shit at the wall and seeing what sticks, passing it off as sage wisdom.
Do you generally pylint an entire codebase at once though? Why not just the file you are actually working on? Based on the homeassistant results (10.3 hours to lint 17.5k files), it only takes about 2 seconds to pylint a file, which doesn't really feel like enough of a wait to need an entirely new linter

This looks very strange to me. There's no paper or explanation as to why the output should be identical to the real Pylint. Looking at GitHub, all the commits are by Claude, and otherwise, adamraudonis doesn't seem to have any connection to anyone else.
I don't want to accuse anyone of anything unjustly, but this post seems more like a kind of malware SEO. Is this project legit?
So basically `ruff check --select=PL` but worse in every single way, maintained by a system that's not even available anymore? It even uses Ruff's code under the surface.
