Lefkowitz said he spends a "lot of time worrying about Python 3", but other maintainers are just giving up. New programmers who are learning Python 3 get "really mad about packages that don't work". They go on Reddit and Hacker News to scream about it. That causes maintainers to just quietly drop out of the community sometimes. He talked to several who did not want to be identified that were burnt out by the continual harassment from those who want Python 3 support. The problem is "not being healed from the top", he said.
