>Instead, I spent my time moving to languages that had more respect for their invested users.
I’m not sure what more they could have done. Python 2 was released almost two decades ago, with an original planned sunsetting that got pushed back to 2020. That’s plenty of time and respect for their users.
>All for zero benefit in the end, other than the hope that they don't make the same mistake again with Python 4.
You’re free to stick with python 2 for as long as you’d like. You’re free to fork the project and continue develop it. To say there is no benefit to new and evolving languages is odd and short-sighted.
