refactor(klipper): recommend Python3 for Klipper installation #246

Closed CODeRUS closed 1 year ago

CODeRUS commented 2 years ago

Nowadays there is no reason to use Python 2. Current distros doesnt have python 2 support, also python 2 klipper installation lacks of unicode file support. Let users to install python2 version of klipper for old os-es if they need.

I think we can finally make that approach, yes. With the last release of Klipper, it was (afaik) actually the first time that it was officially announced, that Klipper supports python3, or at least that it now supports both py3 and py2, see: https://klipper.discourse.group/t/klipper-v0-11-0-release/5143

I agree that we now should make py3 the recommended installation. I see that there is a merge conflict. Would you like to resolve it? And i would propose, that we not call python2 "outdated", how about calling it "legacy" or something? Im fine with marking python3 as the recommended one though.
