Python is my go-to in a lot of situations. Initially I really hated the "whitespace has meaning" feature of it. Now after more than a decade of using it, I've gotten used to it, but I still really dislike the the whitespace scoping.
Everything else is great, I just miss my brackets.
IMO whitespace is one of its biggest selling points. It makes code so much easier to read that keeping track of how deep you're in and which bracket to close. Makes refactoring easy too: select stuff with a certain indentation, cut it out and replace it with a single call or something. No looking for the brackets.
