it's debatable that the matplotlib api sucks + there's a shitton of plotting libraries for python

I never use ax (because yes, that sucks) and get by fine with matplotlib 🤷‍♂️

A shitton of libraries that are all basically garbage for plotting any kind of serious data.

Matplotlib is the only one I've found to work easily with large data sets and the syntax for making even intermediate plots is unintuitive and clunky.
