I like Python the language just fine. Static typing needs a good bit of work, but the real pain points for me have always been performance and tooling (especially package management).
But Go has solid answers for these problems and an excellent static typing story (generics are gravy, but sum types would be nice). I’ve been very happy with Go on balance.
