I take it you haven't seen @zeeg's tweets on the subject, then: https://twitter.com/zeeg

Sorry to disillusion you about the Python community.

Personally, part of the reason I stopped using Python heavily professionally in 2007 is because I was sick of hearing and reading Python web developers regularly disparage Ruby and the "Ruby community," a tradition carried on in comments like yours to this day.

Are you suggesting I was talking bad about the Ruby community?

I openly dislike Ruby (as a language), but I swear this project was written in Node, which I also dislike.

Oh, and I could care less which language something is written in, my simple, trollish tweet, was only based on the usability aspect.

Yeah, about trollish tweets... you might offend someone.
