It was not obvious that the poster was referring to> the API docs, so the initial responses all were "Python *is* thread-safe".Please note that what was confusing the the original poster wasalmost certainly the docs saying that "Python" was not thread-safewhen what was really intended was, as Tim points out, that Python's C api was not thread safe. Using the term "free threading" is fine,but also make it clear that it's the _C api_ we're talking about,because Python itself (ie, programs coded in pure Python) _IS_ threadsafe.-- Michael Chermside
