Regardless of ecosystem, I think it's important to choose packages carefully. Python may have some trash libraries but there are also some very stable and trustworthy ones. I've used Python long enough that I have a selection of libraries I know and use. Javascript / NPM land has been a lot more difficult for me. I've been writing Go a lot lately and it's a breath of fresh air in that I rarely need packages outside of the standard library, which means I simply don't need to think about dependencies very often. That might change if the type of projects I'm working changes.
