I use typescript because every single service that exists releases a first-party typescript or python library. I don't use python because the type system is just not nearly as well supported as typescript. The major problem I have with typescript is that the tooling is terrible but python has the same exact problem. For example, the entire node esm / commonjs disaster makes configuring projects extremely painful. Then throw in frameworks like Next.js that have their own custom workarounds to these problems and it's even more fragmented.
I would only use something like Golang or Rust in a self contained service where it solves a single specific problem and my primary apis would be in typescript.
