Ill bite, why is python a bad thing in this context?

    I think there's always been a bit of snobbery about python. From me included. Looks like its working well here though.

    yeah, I don't say copyparty is bad. On the contrary.

    I just think Python should be limited to some simple scripts and that is it. I like compiled languages much more... Like Golang or C++ or Rust.

    Yeah, zealots like you make it difficult. I believe it's fair you get paid in kind.

    I just don't like Python for actual applications, its slowish, easy to run into run-time issues, etc.

    I think Python is fine for some small programs or scripts.. But for servers and real applications I would even consider either Go, C++ or Rust (hack even C#). Its not just me I think, but just in general.

    Note: I have nothing against Copyparty, in fact I'm willing to give it a try. And its also not a personal attack.

    I see, thanks for sharing! Personally run a few selfhosted projects written in pyhton such as Linkding, and for whatever reason these turn out to be some of my favourite apps 😅
