Remember, the person does it FOR FREE in his SPARE TIME. Any type of entitlement is absolutely toxic. No, you are not entitled for an installer. Especially with Python. The READMEs are usually 1-5 commands, anyway. People would rather rant for across several forums rather than educate themselves over 30 mins.
I wasn't suggesting the developer is obligated to compile anything. I was simply correcting the person I was responding to because they were incorrect. They said "It's source or nothing", and I chimed in that there are, in fact, ways to compile Python to simple executables. Nowhere did I say the developer is required to do this for end users.
I was rather targeting the whole audience, sorry, didn't mean to come out as rude.
Ah, no worries. It's all good.
