- raverbashing 14y agoA little bit of both There are ways to write software that's compatible with both Python 2 and 3 (using six for example: http://pythonhosted.org/six/ http://pythonhosted.org/six/) But I guess it's mostly developers not having the time to update (it's easier if you kept it updated and not using some old constructs)
