It’s lucky Python 2 isn’t supported anymore then, and everyone has had like a decade to run 2to3 once and publish a package for Python 3, so that use case becomes meaningless.
very unfortunately the direct burden of python2 is placed on the packagers.. users of Python 2 like their libs (me) and have no horse in this demonization campaign
Pay for support for Python 2 then? At which point it’s a burden on the person you are paying. Or don't, in which case you're complaining that people are demonizing you because they are not doing your work for free?
this is battle-fatigue in action! I did not complain, in fact I am faced with the serious burden that is placed on packagers of python, on a regular basis, and have put many cycles of thought into it.. It is obvious that packagers and language designers are firmly in one end of a sort of spectrum.. while many users, perhaps engineering managers in production with sunk costs, are firmly at the other.. with many in between .. more could be said.. no one is an enemy on this, it is complicated to solve it with many tradeoffs and moving parts.. evidence in the topic today.
