My spicy take is that XML is better than YAML, because there are situations where XML is appropriate, but there’s no situation where YAML is appropriate. Let me explain…
I’ve always felt there is a balance between readability and the power of what the language can provide. XML for me has always been a nightmare to read compared to JSON, TOML, YAML, etc. But that was 10 years ago, now we have pretty good tools that help with the readbility.
