Don't intend to pick a fight either, but Python seems to be more liked by people who aren't primarily developers (researchers and academics, but also other technical figures like sysadmins, data scientists, analysts, etc.) probably because Python's advantages are very obvious and Python's downsides only start to become apparent to more experienced users. An alternative reason could be that it's starting to get traction as a "CS 101 language", where those classes would have used Java before (or C before that); more people have heard of Python than they have heard of, say Go or Rust.

Obviously both professional developers and "not primarily developers" generally like and use Python. I meant this as a comparison rather than "developers don't use Python".

FAANGs, I really don't know, but I would find it odd if they didn't use Python to at least some extent.
