Pleasure is subjective.

I might enjoy what you find distasteful and vice versa.

Personally, I enjoy using Python and C. I am curious about Rust but haven't had an opportunity to use it much.

Your mileage may vary. I recommend trying a few different languages and see what you enjoy.

Edit: I like C because it feels simple and has a "what you see is what you get" property. The amount of "hidden" code feels like zero.

I like Python because the syntax is elegant and it is easy to get a lot done with a few lines of code.

Yes indeed. To clarify, what I'm looking for is people's subjective opinions, and if possible, some reasoning behind them. I can see this being helpful to many people, especially if we know what you're priorities are and whether they overlap with our own. Thanks for your answer.
