Why YAML sucks? (programming.dev)

I feel that Yaml sucks. I understand the need for such markup language but I think it sucks. Somehow it's clunky to use. Can you explain why?

I like yml. Clean to read, easy to use, supports comments.

Way easier to type than json!

and no possibility of (a lack of) trailing comma's. Unless you use JSON inside Yaml, you heathens!
