Greetings!
I’ve recently wanted to return to Python after not having had the need to use it for university. However, I’ve found plenty of changes: mainly, that I cannot use pip3 normally. I understand that there are security risks, and I should use pipx, but I’m not understanding it. Please keep in mind that I’m no expert but I’d really like to learn how to work with it.
What I’m finding are lots of errors which I don’t quite understand. First, when I install some packages like matplotlib and numpy, I’m finding ‘symlink missing or pointing to unexpected location’ errors. When running a python file that imports them, they’re not found. Jupyter Notebook does work, but I’d like to use other packages like Manim, and either they’re not found, or when I import matplotlib into their venvs, then it just doesn’t work like it should…
I was so used to everything just working with pip3 that I don’t know how to fix these issues.
Thanks!
