I just got my Python certification !
… But I don’t know what to do next. I tried the Responsive Web Designer Certification, but idk it felt quite boring, flat (no offense to people who made it, I’m not criticizing your work, I’m just giving feedback). So what would you advise ? Should I go for JS certification ? I am afraid to get mixed up with the fresh Python knowledge… Any advise would be valued !
I didn’t know in which category put this post. Maybe code feedback ? Python ?

Congrats on that!
What do you want to learn?
If you want to complete the full stack curriculum then you will need to complete every section including RWD and JS.
I was also focused on Python at first and was worried about mixing it up by learning JS. This does happen to some extent, but I think in the end learning a different language gives you another perspective and actually more knowledge about programming in general and more insight into Python itself.
If you purely want to focus on Python for machine learning or data science, and do not want to learn full stack at all, then you should learn statistics or more one of those areas.
fCC does have a data science and machine learning curriculum bu they are getting pretty old now. I did really love the data analysis course, and I recommend it still:

The machine learning one is too old and a lot of the material is deprecated so it makes it difficult to get through.

There’s plenty of tutorials on the news page as well, depending on what exactly you want to learn.

Thank you for all these advises ! I will try the data analysis course, and I’ll probably go on JS after this.

Think about what your goals are though. What exactly do you want to learn or do?
Why did you start with Python?
I just learn code for fun ! I started Python because I heard it was easy and a good choice to start.
Just to be more clear : my work isn’t coding (in fact, I am not allowed to work, so…)

Then I really recommend learning RWD + JS in order to be able to make websites. It’s extremely powerful, and fun, to be able to create a web app that can actually be used and shared easily.
You could also do this by learning Flask or Django frameworks with Python
