We introduced PyPy support as an alternative way to make Sphinx builds faster in #3870 We enabled it in some projects and we tried to communicate this to some CPU intense projects. However, nobody kept using it after doing some experiments with it. I checked our logs and Telemetry data and I found 0 projects using `pypy` in their builds. So, I'm happy to remove its support and simplify our product as its maintainance as well. Even the PyPy project is not using it when building their own documentation: https://readthedocs.org/projects/pypy/builds/21201174/

There was a problem hiding this comment.
I do think it makes sense more as an option for builds.tools, but I'm pretty surprised nobody is using this. If it in fact isn't used by anyone, I'm fine removing it 👍

There was only 1 project and it's I created this metabase question https://ethicalads.metabaseapp.com/question/472-projects-using-pypy-in-a-period?days=30 to make sure my query was correct. |
