    I use pip extensively and have zero issues.

    npm pulls in a million dependencies for even the simplest functionality.

        Really the fault of js since its standard library is so lacking (leftpad, anyone?), but js wasn’t built to do half the stuff it’s being asked to do, anyway.

        Nope. I know mixing pip with python packages installed through your systems package manager can be a problem but that’s why I containerize everything.

      It probably works for your own local project. After using it for couple of days to install some 3rd party tool my conclusion is that it has no idea about dependencies. It just downloads some dependencies in some random versions and than it never works. Completely useless.
