Bruh idk why the difference... Educate me?
cargo just works, it's great and everyone loves it.
npm has a lot of issues but in general does the job. When docs say do 'npm install X' you do it and it works.
pip is a mess. In my experience doing 'pip install X' will maybe install something but it will not work because some dependencies will be screwed up. Using it to distribute software is pointless.
I use pip extensively and have zero issues.
npm pulls in a million dependencies for even the simplest functionality.
Is that really the fault of the package manager or is it of the libraries you decide to use?
Fault of the libraries you decide to use, i.e. any and all node libraries
Well if that's the case, can't argue with that lol
Really the fault of js since its standard library is so lacking (leftpad, anyone?), but js wasn't built to do half the stuff it's being asked to do, anyway.
