Not particularly. People liked PyTorch because eager mode was more intuitive and produced readable error messages, and also because it was more readable than TensorFlow. These are the main reasons any ML developer will give if you ask them why they switched.
It’s been 3 years since I learned Julia and if it weren’t for the package manager I’d go back to Python for this feature alone. I like it when my models are readable and I can check them for bugs.
