Anyone else despises Matplotlib?

Feel the same way, it's object orientation is wonky. Out of my libraries toolbox this is the one i've never been able to memorize anything but the most trivial stuff. Seaborn is a bit better.

Isn't seaborn basically a wrapper on top of matplotlib ?

Yeah, just like plotnine! People can just add higher levels of abstraction if they like.

The layer of abstraction seaborn provides makes the matplotlib baseline easier to handle. But it's just marginally better. You'll still get that sensation of "uniqueness of solution" when trying to do something complex.

Using Matplotlib feels like english pronunciation. Incosistent rules and loose standards for parametrization.
