These tools come and go in the Python world... It's basically like JavaScript frameworks. It seems that people recommend a different one every month




Yes, just like this. Since 2015 when I started work professionally with python, after each year, a new project shows some kind of "messiah complex" around the python distributing software problem... They usually say in some part of the readme: "That time we will be saved! We have the right tool here that does this and that".

No, it's not solved! And probably will not be solved neither.

Obviously, things get better honestly, 2015 was far worst than now, but currently it's very far from perfect.

For instance, go static build are much superior. Or even Rust, with all the language issues, at least the tooling is good and the software distribution works great.
