I thought that was just me - I really rather liked Python the language but was completely confused at how the package system seemed to work.... Mind you this was 12 years ago or so but it was enough to put me off using it ever again.

Yeah, it's still shitty. So often I have to go through some weird hoops to even just run the tests for a project with commits made last week. I can't even ask Claude to explain something about any given repo, it naively tries to run them tests, only to hit the wall. The number of different linters and checkers we have to run on CI just to make sure things are in good state, yet every time I clone something and try to get it running, almost always some kind of bullcrap. Why the fuck we even keep trying to write things in Python, I just don't get it.
