"textContent": "> finger-wagging distro maintainers and Guido von Rossum's people put their collective feet down and said, \"No, you can't use Python 2 anymore even if it's just for a big set of glorified Makefiles, you are going to put in two months of hard work to support our Python 3 vision, or it's either forcing people to hunt down ancient OpenSSL versions to build Python 2 from scratch, hoping people know what Tauthon is, or full-blown Docker containers for your project, and we don't care how that affects you.\"\n\n**Off-topic:**\nAnd to that behavior I'd personally reply \"okay, don't expect for any more mainstream adoption of your GNU/Linuxes, BSDs and whatever unix crap you have then, because here in my Windows 11 I can just easily download an old build environment packaged up into a convenient installer.
