I do understand your position. I have myself felt the pains of Python 2 vs Python 3, I disagree with a lot of the decisions that were taken in Python 3 and often disagree with decisions taken in Python in general. What I dislike is your awful attitude, for the reasons that other people as well as myself have pointed out - reasons that you are unwilling to hear. You are making incorrect assumptions about what others are telling you and feel like your attitude is validated because "people just don't understand that it's justifiable to be upset about Py3". We do understand that. There is no denying that the python 3 migration was a mess. I'm not denigrating your position, I'm dismissing your attitude and I question the reasoning you are bringing to the table to justify it. There's far more valid reasons to dislike Python 3 than "divisions changed".

> I do understand your position. No you don't. I said: "I can't get anyone to pay to rewrite something, and I'm not working for free" And I didn't get a single constructive response. If oblio meant "ignore the existing code base and just (re) write new programs in python3", then my first response is exactly appropriate. > You are making incorrect assumptions about what others are telling you When someone says something, you have to make an assumption about what they mean because you don't know what they mean. You don't know what I mean, and you're making incorrect assumptions about what I meant: You don't get it both ways, you do not get to belittle me for not understanding you and what you claim oblio meant, while standing high and mighty not understanding what I meant. > What I dislike is your awful attitude > I'm not denigrating your position. … There's far more valid reasons to dislike Python 3 than "divisions changed". Which is of course, one of half a dozen reasons I've raised as being problems with python3. Perhaps you need to check the definition of denigrate, because that's exactly what you're doing. You refuse to argue the point I have, and insist on cherry picking the things that you think make you feel smart.
