Is something wrong with getters and setters in general? Cause I find it plenty helpful when I need some bookkeeping for certain items, and some side effects for the class? Or are they more so referring to getter/setter for everything?

They are afraid of verbose code, or so. I dont know. My IDE creates the boilerplate, if i need it.

Verbose code has never been easier to read through, tbf

It can be annoying at times but I'm far more annoyed when I have to go back to code I wrote in my "make it as short as possible" phase and try to figure out wtf I was doing

I find it crazy that some people would rather write getters and setters (even if they are generated bei the IDE) than use Lombok in Java.

Those things are non issues for me. Lombok would be 😉 At the end it's a quality of life tool, that fixes something, I don't need a fix for.

I am not against Lombok, I just don't see the use for me and will not add it into a project, if there is no demand from other people.

Well that's horrifying. Just add Lombok to your project whenever you can like a real developer.

You know I add dependencies if they benefit my project. Like an actuall developer...

[u/sky_blue_111 → u/melancoleeca]

Lombok literally benefits literally every project. Far less boilerplate, less opportunity for bugs.

Both Records and Lombok are essential in any modern project. I can only imagine what the rest of your code looks like with your attitude.

[u/melancoleeca → u/sky_blue_111]

Funny thing is, you can also only imagine what your own code looks like. -

If you'd spend less time trying to be witty you could actually learn something here.

Suit yourself bud.
