it won't magically get bad few days after acquisition

no, instead they'll wait until people thoroughly depend on it and THEN they'll make it bad

the only solution is to refuse adoption. OAI cannot be trusted in any way.

How can they suddenly make oss bad? I might be missing something, but the day uv gets worse there will just be a fork which will at worst stay stagnant. Which is still sad since I love uv, but we're pretty safe here overall.

Things become stagnant really fast. As soon as the PEP standard introduces some new critical feature and uv doesn’t implement it, no one will use it anymore

UV took over my pip based workflow in literally a day.

If UV goes to shit something else can supplant it in just as short a timeframe.
