This isn't YAML, this is just sparkling JSON

All yaml is just sparkling JSON.

How do you figure?

[–] TomasEkeli@programming.dev 15 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Valid JSON is valid YAML.

So valid YAML can contain JSON

That's a long way from all or most YAML being JSON-compatible. I wonder if more YAML files in the wild parse as Markdown than JSON.

JSON is valid YAML does not imply that YAML is valid JSON

That was my point, yes, but I was replying to @ZoteTheMighty@midwest.social's suggestion that "all yaml is just sparkling json".
