I love async in Python and JS. I used to be one of those "Threads aren't that hard, just use threads" people, but that was back when the trend was doing "async" with layers of nested callbacks like as if this was LISP or something where people just accept deep nesting.

Now we have async/await and I'm always happy to see it.

I can't quite understand all of the async hate.

I use it in C# and JS with no friction or mental overhead required.

In C#, I can still use channels or threads if I want to as well. But async/await is great for any I/O heavy code.
