I absolutely hate the package management in it. I can't tell you how many times I've found a cool python project, downloaded it from GitHub then tried to install requirements. And it turns into a huge nightmare of trying to find compatible packages. It'll be like you need wheel v3.1.0 so I try to install that,.then it's like no you can't do that because it's not compatible with numpy v79.84.1 that you have installed. So then you search and try to find which version is compatible, then install they go to install wheel again,.and it's like no you need pandas,.so you install pandas but it like sorry I'm not compatible with the version of numpy you installed.
I literally almost failed a uni course bc how shitty python packaging is. And well, maybe I am lazy, but the horrors of daring to get fucking deps were too much.
Just use Julia ffs. ๐ญ๐ญ
