I’m not saying matplotlib isn’t good for that, I’m saying the pyplot state-based submodule can’t do everything and switching to the OOP interface is jarring and confusing. I mean stuff like customizing tick marks
absolutely, which is why they shouldn’t have made pyplot. Unfortunately its already become so ingrained that it’s the main way to plot stuff in python. I’m probably gonna start using Seaborn or Bokeh or Altair

you must have been doing simple plots because as soon as you needed to really customize things you had to start calling methods
