I'm really used to my Graphite workflow and I can't imagine going without it anymore. An acquisition like this is normally not good news for the product.

I really wanted to give them a try actually, now I definitely won’t.

Any ways I could convince you to?

We currently let loose Gemini, Cursor Bugbot, Qodo, and even Sentry started reviewing PRs now.

My usually prefer Gemini but sometimes other tools catch bugs Gemini doesn't.

As someone who has never heard of Graphite, can anyone share their experience comparing it to any of the tools above?

I've never used Graphite's AI features, so I can't compare!

Graphite predates AI code reviews. Obviously includes it now, but the original selling point was support for stacking PRs.

Graphite isn’t really about code review IMO, it’s actually incredibly useful even if you just use the GitHub PR UI for the actual review. Graphite, its original product anyway, is about managing stacks of dependent pull requests in a sane way.

Their AI review is sub par, but everything else is really good.

Don't worry - we're not going anywhere. The goal is to continue building and maintaining the product.

Heard on the worry, but I can confirm Graphite isn’t going anywhere. We're doubling down on building the best workflow, now with more resourcing than ever before!

We’ve heard this many times before with other acquisitions so don’t be upset if people are a bit skeptical.

Supermaven said the same thing when they were acquired by Cursor and then EOLed a year later. Honestly, it makes sense to me that Cursor would shut down products it acquires - I just dislike pretending that something else is happening.

There is literally nothing anyone can say to convince me any product or person is safe during an acquisition. Time and time again it's proven to just not be true. Some manager/product owner/VP/c-suite will eventually have the deciding factor and I trust none of them to actually care about the product they're building or the community that uses it

Doesn't getting acquired mean that you no longer have the authority to confirm that?

LOL. Just by bayesian logic this statement makes it more likely that it will go to trash.
