Counterpoint: it's terrible. A lack of a lockfile is a killer, plus it not really fitting well with the general ecosystem (it's not really a python dependency manager). It's an all or nothing tool, which sucks to be honest

Now most projects have wheels pip is pretty damn good.

The conda CLI is also just terrible. It's good for ad-hoc research, but for big deployments? No thanks, I've had enough pain using it.
