Eh. Python packaging is just fine. Set up a venv, install with pip, done. I think that the difficulty of installing Python packages is wildly overblown on this site.


It's not overblown.

There's 10 different package managers and none of them seem to have any common conventions.

To even run a script you need to setup a venv and enter it by sourcing scripts.

Try to move a venv, it breaks.

Try to understand how/what/where it installs things its a black box if you are not "in" the ecosystem.

Node seems easy in comparison. I hate how python makes it so hard to use.


not “AI Bubble” overblown but close
