Removing Python 2.x support from Django for version 2.0
Oh my god stop. You&#x27;re all over this thread. <i>What bit you</i>?<p><i>This is the price you pay for staying on an old version</i>. You do not get to stick to an old version AND demand that others do too.<p>You CAN stay on Python 2. You CAN stay on Django 1.11. It&#x27;s LTS. So is Python 2.7. You get to use both until 2020 with no issues. After that, not upgrading is a technical debt that will start to accrue, faster and faster as you can no longer use recent versions of various software.<p>You are free to make your infrastructure immutable; you then become responsible for it of course. And the money you&#x27;re not willing to spend porting to Python 3 today will be money you spend on costs related to being on outdated infrastructure, years in the future. That&#x27;s a tradeoff. Banks do it a lot I hear. A bunch of companies still use ancient hardware and technologies nobody would think of starting a business with today. These companies make billions.<p>You know what the employees of these companies aren&#x27;t doing? They&#x27;re not bitching on HN that the tech they&#x27;re using is no longer supported.
