I would not be putting up with Python if not for uv. It’s that good.

Before uv came along I was starting to write stuff in Go that I’d normally write in Python.

Coming from a mostly Java guy (since around 2001), I've been away from Python for a while and my two most recent work projects have been in Python and both switched to uv around the time I joined. Such a huge difference in time and pain - I'm with you here.

Python's always been a pretty nice language to work in, and uv makes it one of the most pleasant to deal with.

    I don't even like Python as a language (it's growing on me, but only a little).

    It's just so useful: uv is great and there are decent quality packages for everything imaginable.
