Python is a lot like PHP. A uniquely bad value proposition in almost all aspects. It is a slow interpreted language, but that isn't the only argument against it. It has abandoned backwards compatiblity in the past and there are still annoying people harassing you with obsolete python versions. The language and syntax still heavily lean towards imperative/procedural code styles and things like lambdas are a third class citizen syntax wise. The strong reliance on C based extensions make CPython the only implementation that sees any usage. CPython is a pain to deploy crossplatform, because you also need to get a C compiler to compile to all platforms. The concept behind venv is another uniquely bad design decision. By default, python does the wrong thing and you have to go out of your way and learn a new tool to not mess up your system. Then there are the countless half baked community attempts to fix python problems. Half baked, because they decide to randomly stop solving one crucial aspect and this gives room for dozens of other opportunistic developers to work on another incomplete solution. It was always a mystery to me that there are people who would voluntarily subject themselves to python.
