As I programming language I don't love R. I didn't get it till I took a biostatistics class. (We could use Stata/Excel or R for the class). It really shines analyzing data. Its loved by statisticians and some programmable attributes too.

Biologists like it for single cell analysis. They use Seurat and save the data as an object and load it up/ pass around around for analysis. Its actually kinda neat.

R's ggplot2 library is top tier in making graphs.

RStudio makes it very accessible.
