>npm / yarn ecosystem sucks compared to what you get with Python and PyPi

So you claim Python has a better standard library AND a better package ecosystem? That's bold. Care to expand on why you feel this?

I ask because of this. From the perspective of a JS dev who helps Python devs at work, pip seems pretty weak, its publishing story even weaker, and then both languages seem to have all their strength in their package ecosystems (Python: tf, django, dataframes, etc; JS: react, typescript, etc). So now to see you say "npm ecosystem sucks compared to pip" has me wondering what I'm missing.
