This contradicts what I've heard others say about it. I have a feeling it is quite subjective, and this might just be an anecdotal recommendation because you have an easy time with it. Maybe I will too! But maybe I won't.

Either way, one part of me really wants to try it, but one part has very little time in life. ๐Ÿฅฒ

Also comparing it to C++ might not be the flex we think it is. ๐Ÿ˜…

Well sure, I guess you're right, it's definitely a bit subjective and some people have an easier time with some languages and ways of thinking than others for sure. And I didn't really mean to say that it was totally super easy, but... no kind of programming is really super easy. It is quite different and that in itself has a learning curve.

My recommendation is for sure anecdotal, but I think the point about it seeming more difficult than it really is because people often use it for difficult stuff is actually true.

Take my up vote. I agree with everything in that comment. ๐Ÿ‘
