I am also learning DSA using Python. Having conversed with multiple software engineers from big tech companies, including from FAANG, I believe language should not be given priority in this initial learning curve. Instead, you should focus on internalizing the concepts first, then concentrate on a specific language if necessary. Otherwise, you may end up wasting time on understanding the syntax of C/C++.
Moreover, for the technical interview, it is preferable to use Python as it will allow you to focus on the problem rather than thinking about the syntax. It's worth mentioning that C/C++ is heavily used in coding competitions due to its speed.
Thank you & All the best!
