I think the energy spent supporting Python 2 and the inability to really unify and focus the community on Python 3 is preventing or delaying that kind of dramatic improvement.
If people would rather move to another ecosystem rather than update their code that's fine. The Python community doesn't get paid a nickel every time the interpreter runs, (at least slightly) engaged users are what move Python forward.
- rdtsc 11y agoThe difference is if we look at it from the point of view of the Python community (and they are all about Python 3). But another view is that of developers who see themselves as developers of product X or company Y and they value their bread on their table or that X and Y wins more than Python is popular or Python succeeds.
