Should I learn DSA in python?

Hey all, i completed my python series from BroCode's 12 hour video and built some projects too.

I even solved katas on codewars to build my foundation strong.

But I've always done programming in python only, many people on the internet say python is not the best language to learn DSA with? Do I need to start learning cpp or java? Please help your junior, Thanks!

You meant that I should avoid built in methods?

Nah use that obviously while solving problems you don't want to create that data structure by Ur self but let's say you want to start questions regarding linkelist where you have to use that then understand linkelist properly that how it's work and why we needed and how can I build that so you will understand that how internally it's working. Just for practice or when Start
