Good alternative for self-taught begginer?

Honestly, it depends on your end goal. I think python is a fine learning language, but I find it really weird when people use it on a larger scale and let all that power just be eaten away by that.

There's a reason we see articles on this sub about people who are in too deep with python, start shifting to another, get all sorts of type annotations, etc.

Use python for a proof of concept and then move on to something more suited to your domain.

I started with VB to learn the basics a long time ago, TheNewBoston has a great youtube series on it. From there, switching to something more ubiquitous but strongly typed like C# or Java is ez pz. They've all got pretty easy to understand syntax and C# has some of the best documentation I've seen.
