After this blogpost was published in 2023, uv came along:

> TL;DR: uv is an extremely fast Python package installer and resolver, written in Rust, and designed as a drop-in replacement for pip and pip-tools workflows.

> uv represents a milestone in our pursuit of a "Cargo for Python": a comprehensive Python project and package manager that's fast, reliable, and easy to use.

> As part of this release, we're also taking stewardship of Rye, an experimental Python packaging tool from Armin Ronacher. We'll maintain Rye as we expand uv into a unified successor project, to fulfill our shared vision for Python packaging.

Rye is listed. While the Astral guys continue to impress, their adoption of the project is still super young. I do not think uv changes anything over base rye yet.

They've made a ton of progress in just the last couple weeks, actually.

Still super young, like you said, but it's really good for a lot of cases and now defaults to using uv under the hood I believe, which makes it quite fast.
