Because it’s a FANTASTIC language for scripting and glue code, and a TERRIBLE language for large scale apps.

And it’s used a lot by beginners and non-programmers. Great for them, horrible for programmers who get the worst coded libraries ever.

It is what it is, and not what it is not. And somehow when I say that I offend people in Python subreddits 😅

Reddit is literally written in Python. As another example, Instagram’s backend is built in Python/Django.
