Ask HN: Which is better for backend? JavaScript or Python?

I am eager to know this from expert developers to understand the constraints and problems.

    Use what you thinking is the best fit for the job.

    I’ve been using Python as my workhorse for 15+ years. I recently made a backend for a chat bot using C#, and I have to admit that I liked a lot of it. I’ve also made some non-trivial things with Elixir and loved it.

    Neither are good and both are bad.

    Use Golang instead.
