- urda 9y agoYou can still install just python3 and call that as-is if you are not using any extra libraries. If you are using any extra libraries, you should not be installing that system-wide, and should use an environment anyway. You literally can still use python3 for simple scripting tasks on your Mac, hell I do everyday. One just has to install python3, a trivial task on a Mac.
