Totally agree, all my { end up on the next line, 1st spot when starting a function, last character of the keyword when starting an if/for/… section. I even put the closing one on the same line when it’s single line, else either at the end of the closing line (when changing really old code) or same indent.
So indenting varies a lot, which makes most ‘new’ programmers go mental.
while (my code)
{ I'lldo it my way }
if (! liked)
{ toughen-up }
else
{ get used to it
multi-line can go both ways...
}
Is this some kind of python meme I’m too C++ to understand?
Now, I’m completely willing to start a war about { going on the next line.
It goes on the line! If you put it below, you’re wasting a line for no extra readability!
It goes on the next line, so you can have open and close brackets at the same indent depth for easy visual matching.

Why isn’t the else curly lined up with the end of the else word? I’d your gonna go crazy might as well go all the way I guess 😜
Wonder what the x-axis is? Survey year? Years of experience? Caffeine intake?
Anyway, I can hardly join a holy war – I code in assembly most comfortably, which I’m pretty sure is heresy these days.
