    Sad about the slow plugin host churn- given how relatively unpopular the host app is, a lot of plugins will are abandoned and won't be upgraded from 3.3 (but hopefully at least the most useful would be)

    By the way, are there any plans to extend beyond Python so you could depend only on the editor APIs breaking and otherwise use whatever language version you want?

    Tangentially related, are there any great examples of apps greatly designed from the start in a way that can support plugin APIs without breakage for decade(s)? How do they do it?

      Most plugins just work in Python 3.14. Python didn't break backwards compatibility that much.
