My problem with yaml is if you truncate it at any random spot, there’s a high likelihood it’s still valid yaml. I don’t like the idea that things can continue without even knowing there’s a problem. The single opening and closing curly braces enclosing a json object is all it takes to at least know you didn’t receive the entire message. Toml has the same issue. I’ll stick with json when it makes sense.
Quite like YAML, XML has too many stuff in it. While a lot of parsers are not standard compliant and safe, if there’s any chance the stuff you include on your code can evolve into a fully featured parser, including it is something to avoid.
There is this language called KDL that looks interesting.

Add a schema to it and you get XML. The ultimate serialization format.
