Yeah, never understood what a Python Dev could find attractive in Go, besides not having to deal with C instead.

Which is positive mind you, but they would be better served by adopting PyPy.

Pypy is super cool, but it doesn’t solve for maintainability and it only improves performance by one order of magnitude, leaving it 1-2 orders slower than Go. Besides, IMO, goroutines are so much nicer than Python’s async.

Yeah, I totally agree. I love Python, but I can't stand Python's async situation. I don't like Go, but I think its concurrency is miles better.
