I'm afraid at least on this list you're in a minority then. It's not widely liked, if for no other reason than it's highly uncooperative event loop.
Actually, it seems like a lot of people use WX and Twisted, and some people like the combination quite a lot. I think OSAF is still using this combination for Chandler and I don't think they're unhappy. The reason you hear so much vitriol about it on this list is that 90% of the time, wx + networking appears to work in the lab, but when released into the wild will explode in unexpected ways; many people here who don't like wx are nevertheless maintaining applications which use it. If you know what you're doing with both event loops you can prevent this, though.
