No one will do it until it becomes painful enough to not do it. Killing support in all of the tools is the only way to make it happen.

- the_local_host 6y agoNo one will do it after support in the tools is killed off either. People will use the last versions of the tools from wherever they can get them, and workarounds for any issues that are discovered will become part of the folklore surrounding the code.
- canofbars 6y agoThats fine too, at least its no longer bogging down software maintainers since they can just tell people they do not support py2
- willis936 6y agoSweeping cat puke under the rug is not the same as cleaning cat puke off the floor. Having software maintainers to tell their users “get bent” does not fix the user’s bugs or security exploits.
