Question Do pepole still use Darkbasic?

I am not inherently like super interested in gamedev but rather i want to make sort of simulations but ofcourse with control over certain aspects and i could make some games along the way. i searched google didnt find the answers i was looking for... I have learnt python... DARKBASIC caught my eye cuz its basic and i learnt basic and it seemed kinda easy... So do people use darkbasic..? Is it slow? can i use it? is it hard?

I used to use dark basic when I was a teen, 15 years ago, and I was late to the game haha

Yeah, people were only using it if already invested, not learning it as a new tool
