This is such an end of an era that fresh Python programmers can’t even fathom.
PyPy used to be our hope! No major Python conference that didn’t suggest that they’re gonna fix the GIL and make time go backwards. And yeah, it’s really fast! I suspect the money-backed focus on performance in CPython combined with the compat paper cuts PyPy always came with has sealed its fate. I‘ve watched its decline over the years so I’m not surprised, but damn.
