RHEL 7 (which still has 4 years of extended lifecycle support left) ships with Python 2.7.5
MacOS Sonoma (the latest version) doesn't include Python at all; older versions of MacOS which are still supported ship with Python 2.x
- rini17 3y agoEven python2 is muchly preferable to bash/awk, thanks.
- IshKebab 3y agoI don't think anyone using RHEL 7 is in the target audience for this software. Be realistic.
- justsomehnguy 3y agoThere are still machines on 2.6 kernels where I work. > I don't think > target audience You != people
- IshKebab 3y agoAnd do those machines have web servers exposed to the world?

- jasongill 3y agoYes, why wouldn't they? There are multiple vendors who still provide security updates for CentOS 6
- justsomehnguy 3y agoDo you ask that question to bash me for having an old, unsupported OSes open to the world? Then address this to the owners of those machines. And get a load of cash ready to give it to them, so they could migrate to somehitng newer.
- jasongill 3y agoI don't think you really have any idea what you're talking about, to be honest - there are millions of RHEL 7 and CentOS 7 boxes in production right now, and many of them are serving websites and could benefit from SSL certificates. I know of a couple large organizations that have tens of thousands of RHEL 7 machines that use letsencrypt for customer websites, and I sent this project to sysadmins on their teams, so it's very realistic to expect that businesses are still using supported software. Not everyone can just upgrade to the latest version of Ubuntu every 6 months for their production workloads like you might expect.
