I actually like python, the language. I think it balances the needs of a dynamic language well and I like that it is, at least, strongly typed. My hate is entirely directed at python, the environment and tooling around the language. Other languages have figured this stuff out and python just hasn't. And the horribly managed 2.x -> 3.x migration made things even worse. I get that it is enjoyable to program in and I think it makes a fine choice for instances where a whole team is bought into the decision to use it. But when it's used for things that are distributed to others or force other people who aren't experts in python to wade into the ugliness of the python ecosystem, that's what makes me hate it. I've had so many python-related problems with the aws command-line client alone, let alone all the other python I've been forced to run, that I never want to touch another product written in python again. To me, it's just an instance of developers prioritizing themselves over their users (hello electron devs).
