What is your main programming language and what are you using it for?

I am curious to know what most people do with programming other than Sololearn.

I use Python. Other than Sololearn, I use it for various web bot projects. One in the past was a chat bot that lead and tricked horny men into visiting links that made me money. I made something like 40$ (I don't quite remember) before getting banned. And rather than changing my IP I decided to do a new project. This project is what I'm working on currently. And it does work, it just is missing a lot of little features and bug fixes. Anyway the new project is a bot that scrapes terms from Google trends and searches them on YouTube, then downloads videos based on a certian criteria, then combines those videos into a compilation video and then uploads it. The channel is Foxai if you want to search for it. It has generated a video by itself with no interaction from me that has 240+ views. In the future I I'm looking to have it automatically reply to comments with a response generated from a markhov chain. I've also made a automatic right clicker, since my right click button doesn't work on my mouse.
