People dont want a strong standard library anymore.
I do. I like python a lot because of the standard library covers a lot of use cases. On the other hand rust is a great language but try to read JSON and the dependencies pulled in and the build artifacts take up 5 gigabytes of space. I hate writing software sometimes.
Urllib3 is doodooass but otherwise yeah python is my fav language atm cos i rarely ever use anything but the std lib. Also i have multithreading turned on in 3.14 and its swag

I only write small programs and scripts so if I have to make web requests I use this instead: https://github.com/slingamn/mureq
It’s one file so I just download and import it.
Thats pretty sweat. Tbh all urllib needs is a thin abstraction like this to make it a bit more legible
I’m not sure why something like this isn’t already packaged in the standard library. It’s like a jobs program for requests devs.
