Enhance Your Project Quality with These Top Python Libraries
Flake8. This library is a wrapper around pycodestyle (PEP8), pyflakes, and Ned Batchelder’s McCabe script. It is a great toolkit for checking your code base against coding style (PEP8), programming errors (like SyntaxError, NameError, etc) and to check cyclomatic complexity.

Is it considered rude to completely change the formatting of someone else's code when making a PR?
https://github.com/psf/black it’s a PEP8 compliant formatter for Python codebases. If you don’t like auto formatting files you can use https://github.com/PyCQA/flake8 it just lists out all of the style issues so you can fix them manually.

Ruff: one Python linter to rule them all
I have no stake in that, but my observation is that the actual discussion appears to have both supporters and detractors rather than overwhelming support. Either way, it has nothing to do with whether or not it is realistic to say that Ruff is the "one Python linter to rule them all".

Flake8 took down the gitlab repository in favor of github
I must try this some time https://pypi.org/project/Flake8-pyproject/ since the flake8 author refuses to add pyproject.toml support themselves. Marking the ticket as "too heated" and pull requests as spam, like he has something against the pyproject.toml format or something.

Python 3.11 is out! Huzzah!
If you're sufficiently annoyed to accept an extra dependency over this (like I was), there's this: https://pypi.org/project/Flake8-pyproject/

Project template for modern Python packages
Regarding setup.cfg, it's currently used for flake8 related configuration. Flake8 doesn't support pyproject.toml: https://github.com/PyCQA/flake8/issues/234. There are some workarounds, such as https://github.com/john-hen/Flake8-pyproject, but, in my opinion, getting rid of additional config file doesn't really justify additional dependency. However, as setup.cfg is currently used only for flake8 related configs, perhaps it could be replaced by .flake8 file.
