Why is this a thing still? Who is out there saying "We want you to develop an app but we won't let you use Python"?
Granted, I really wish there was a python-lts that didn't break stdlib stuff every few years, but it seems like everything remotely modern breaks compatibility constantly...
- spicybright 3y agoNot many people are saying that, but there's a few cases it could make sense. Like if you want to setup something on an embedded machine with no/restricted internet, then bash scripts will be easier. Some people also like not having to do extra installs to run something simple. And some scripts are simple enough that it's just easier to use bash. But I agree, these cases are pretty obscure and most of the time the benefits of using a real language is worth the investment.
