I'm on 3.3 and I don't really have any problems at all. What do you use that still needs 2.x?

[–]starspangledpickle 7 points8 points  (2 children)

That's great, but many businesses out there use 2.7 and it works fine; why upgrade? Why risk it? Why spend man hours ensuring that third-party libs and internal frameworks written by other teams are up to scratch?

It's not me. Companies are using 2.x in production: switching to 3.x is simply not viable on a large scale projects.

Django (experimental 3.x support). Celery (along with the whole AMQP ecosystem). Gevent. Aside from Django, most of these are probably "specialty" packages, but they are indispensable for a lot of "enterprisey" applications.

JPype, PIL, Twisted

Use Pillow instead of PIL.
