> Apart from Python2 is EoL and it would be the only application on my PC requiring it, just personal preference. However, from [https://profanity-im.github.io/plugins.html](url) it confirms the Profanity can be complied with Python 2 or 3 and the plugins should run with either. 

If you are using plugins and can confirm that it is working with python 3, then I have no objections. As mentioned, we could also consider disabling python by default if people aren't using the functionality (and still merge the v3 support).

It's by default built, and doesn't depend on python. I'd actually ask again if anyone is using it (I'd think OTR is more popular), and otherwise disable it by default.

Seems to be a dependency to the tray functionality [1], but I'd be all for disabling this by default.
