The real question is how did Python avoid the toxicity of the Linux or bitcoin dev community (remember the block size debate?)

Though there was a developer who was forced to quit a while ago.

Python is one of the most toxic communities out there. A couple of people sold out python-dev to their corporations and used the CoC and non-programming related activities to gain power. They drove people out who dared to contradict them.

Some of the clique have been fired later and now CPython is basically a hollow shell with some corporate projects still going on.
