Well, once you get over the fact that information on a TOML file can be out of order in any place, denominated by any mix of 3 different key encodings, and broken down in any random way... then yes, the rest of TOML is good.
I should write a love letter to JSON.
Honestly, it’s fine. TOML is better if you can use it, but otherwise for simple applications, it’s fine. PgBouncer still uses INI, though that in particular makes me twitch a bit, due to discovering that if it fails to parse its config, it logs the failed line (reasonable), which can include passwords if it’s a DSN string.
