I can see the argument. But I still think it's shifting the blame from the developers of this software that people use but which haven't bothered updating in over a decade.
EDIT: For the past, I don't know how many versions of macOS, you'd get the following message when running python2:
"WARNING: Python 2.7 is not recommended.
This version is included in macOS for compatibility with legacy software.
Future versions of macOS will not include Python 2.7."
- upbeat_general 5y agoTrue, except that's only been since catalina which is from 2019. While I get that programs can't practically run on a new OS decades later, I don't think we should be okay with such a short lifespan as on macOS.
- _aavaa_ 5y agoBut it isn't a short lifespan. Python 2 had it's original EOL in 2015. It's been 7 years since the date of the original EOL. Which is to say nothing about how much heads up they had before 2015.
