Python 2 and python 3 are quite different and so that's why python2 is
still a thing since it is still needed by python2 stuff.

Python2 is good also for what it is/was.

There won't be any updates for it anymore, maybe security updates??

Best to develop with python3 but I think python2 will be around as long as
it's needed.
