Ha! Im still using magrittr, no reason other than habit though. I did check out this video when I saw your post, though

While I have gone to |> as the native option day to day, I do acknowledge all the other specialist magrittr pipes, and do not have an alternative for %T>%

question for the #rstats community.

someone who still uses the magrittr pipe is edgy/retro/cool or an anachronistic chump who should get with the times?

asking for a friend...

I'm reading a guide calling the magrittr %>% "legacy pipe" and I haven't felt this old in a while.

I refuse to switch to |>.

The magrittr pipe is how I know, because we teach the native pipe 😂

@richmeister.bsky.social and I were talking about the subject of the magrittr-to-native pipe transition of docs this week in the AMA he did! Maybe the community could help with that in his packages eventually!

I also fixed the 2nd PR this morning.

Both of my PRs were about transitioning from the {magrittr} pipe to the Base R pipe — one to clean up {forcats} examples/vignette, and one to deprecate a {usethis} function that makes it easy to add %>% to a package.

github.com/r-lib/usethis/pull/2183
Deprecate `use_pipe()`. Fixes #2124 by math-mcshane · Pull Request #2183 · r-lib/usethis
Completed: Added a short deprecation message when using use_pipe(), Added a longer bit of advice in the package documentation for common substitutions, including the 2023 blog post on the base pip...

I can’t remember the last time I needed to use the magrittr pipe, having switched to the base pipe about a year ago. But I’m definitely very grateful to the magrittr team for popularising a pipe operator in R in the first place!
September 11, 2025 at 2:10 PM
Huh, I had no idea about this. That's probably it for magrittr then, no need for the package to exist any longer

As of R 4.2.0, in most cases where you need the magrittr `.` you can use the base pipe placeholder `_` instead.

The `\()` anonymous shorthand I use waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay more than I thought I would have when it dropped. Haven't used the magrittr pipe in at least a year now.

Has my life gotten better? No. But I think the |> pipe is the cuter option.

I switched so I could get rid of the magrittr dependency in packages :).
September 9, 2025 at 11:38 PM
Yes, checked the magrittr, too, nothing.
September 1, 2025 at 1:27 PM
Check the magrittr docs? (Haven't looked, but it has several pipe types that aren't elsewhere AFAIK)
September 1, 2025 at 1:01 PM
I am of two minds:
1) I have been converted to your position that tidy packages should probably be avoided in prod to avoid dependency bloat
2) I will also load the entire ass tidyverse just to use the magrittr pipe because I am a demon

I'm always interested in the thinking / process that led to a general approach to data analysis and graphics.
* What were the initial ideas that led to tidy thinking?
* Pipes were well known outside of #Rstats; how did magrittr play into this?
* What lessons were learned from {plyr} 📦?
I'm writing up a brief history of the tidyverse? What do you want to know about it? #rstats

@travisgerke.bsky.social got a magrittr one at conf in 2023 and it's glorious!!

For (c), it's mostly b/c training data for other languages far outpaces that of what was there for R, and the fact that it defaults to magrittr pipe (which can be overrode w/prompt) is a signal it's not super well R-trained. Also, it can't write {ggplot2} code better than me. Ever. 🙃

Finally checked the Use Native Pipe Operator RStudio #rstats option. For those constantly piping into [Vv]iew(), a small advantage to the native pipe is that the 'title' argument gets automatically supplied as the function call instead of the cryptic '.' from magrittr.
July 9, 2025 at 7:35 PM
I can’t believe there’s a magrittr package 😂😂😂😂😂

Every time I taught the pipe operator in R’s magrittr package, I’d tell my students to go see Magritte’s The Treachery of Images in person at LACMA but every time I visited LACMA, the gallery was closed or it was on loan. Today is the first day I got to see it! With some of my students!
