what is the difference between fun <T : BaseClass> doThing() : ReturnType
and fun <T> doThing() : ReturnType where T : BaseClass
?
is it just a matter of taste ?

AFAIK yes. where exists so you can specify more upper bounds (according to docs)

[Nikky]

i guess those get interesting in the new type inference algorithm

I usually use 1️⃣ when its a single boundary and 2️⃣ when there are multiple boundaries
