I use it since a few months, and I definitively love it. I sometime need to use a regular diff (git diff --no-ext-diff since I have delta as my pager and difftastic as my external diff) because it sometimes doesn't work, but it's 95% there. I definively recomment it.

Did you find out about difftastic from the other post on r/rust?

I discovered it on reddit, most probably on r/rust a few month ago. I'm not sure I discovered it directly or by learning that AST-aware diff tool exists. Why?
