Allman is very practical for JSON

Finally, someone understands that Allman is not that great, and that Kernighan & Ritchie is the way to go. Also, Haskell, my guy, you good? Lisp, are you ok? Do I need to call your parents?

All of those are heretical. The one True Language is Brainfuck, where the coding syntax for Hello World is

++++++++[>++++[>++>+++>+++>+<<<<-]>+>+>->>+[<]<-]>>.>---.+++++++..+++.>>.<-.<.+++.------.--------.>>+.>++.

Allman looks fine to me. But I'm a C# dev so maybe I'm just used to it.

idk, Allman is very readable. Easy to scan vertically to find the matching open brace. Not quite as vertically-space efficient as the best way, but it's not offensive.

Allman works best if you like folding code blocks.

No line breaks. Just one long line of code.

Tell me you're a Java developer without telling me you're a Java developer.

Haskell, baby, what is you doing??

Noone writes Haskell like that. People generate Haskell like that because layout syntax is a fickle beast to generate and outputting braces means you can make mistakes in layout without breaking things, the way the braces and semicolons are output emphasise how they actually don't matter, they're also easy to delete in a text editor.

Also it matches up with other Haskellisms, e.g. lists:

let foo = [ bar
          , baz
          , quux
          ]

See how it's immediately apparent that you didn't miss a single comma? It's also trivial to match up opening and closing brackets like that, even in deeply nested situations.

Not doing that is actually my main pet peeve with Rust's standard formatting.

That's not Lisp...

(while (== x y)
  (func1)
  (func2)
)

Allman is objective the correct choice

People code like that????

People indent braces more than the line before and less than the line after?

Words cannot express my displeasure

Allman or even horstmann I could still deal with, the rest would be difficult.

Though none are as bad as whoever came up with right aligning all the brackets to make any code look like python until you spot the deranged line of brackets on the right…

I cannot for the life of me find it now but the dude put it on GitHub

I quite like GNU

Looking at them all, I don't hate whitesmiths. Keeps all the associated block on one line which makes it a bit easier to parse

I use Allman for control statements and K&R for declarations

If you have ADHD, your coding style is a combination of all of these, and sometimes none of the above.

oh so you hate Richard stallman?

Some of those made me physically ill.

Like. You do WHAT with your whitespace?!
