You cant compare pwsh, c# or python with AHK - the quick on-boarding experience and easiness of use is on another level. You can make very big improvements in your daily workflow with just 1 line of code. Its that awesome. I use it in last 20 years for various purposes, be it speeding up web development or fixing video player quirks.
Language was never good, but it was good for what it was designed for, 5 to 10 liner scripts, but then people liked AHK so much that they used it as general purpose langauge (myself included). For example its still the easiest way to create a GUI, in just a couple of lines of code you can have meaningfull tool window which does things.
With AHK2, the language is way better and consistent (cudos to Leixkos and this decade+ long effort), and it makes other people able to create good libraries for others in it.
You should not miss it. For me, not using it is like not knowing Regular Expressions or some HTML.
