i used protobuffers a lot at $previous_job and i agree with the entire article. i feel the author’s pain in my bones. protobuffers are so awful i can’t imagine google associating itself with such an amateur, ad hoc, ill-defined, user hostile, time wasting piece of shit.

the fact that protobuffers wasn’t immediately relegated to the dustbin shows just how low the bar is for serialization formats.
