🔄 Update: I’ve just expanded my #Miniforge migration guide with a dedicated troubleshooting section. It now covers common issues I’ve encountered over the past years — including #SSL certificate errors, channel configuration for conda-forge-only environments, and a workaround for situations where #mamba isn’t available in the base environment. If you have further tips, feel free to comment here or on the blog post. #conda #CondaForge

After recent license changes at #Anaconda, Inc., #Miniforge has become the recommended, fully open solution for institutional #Python environments. Now bundling both #conda and #mamba, it replaces #Miniconda/ #Mambaforge, ensuring high performance and broad package access via #CondaForge. Here I summarized the key changes and migration steps:

Personally, I'm a big fan of 🕸 Spyder IDE for #python #development and scripting. Now, starting from version 6, it ships with an installer for Win, Mac and Linux. Spyder is itself a Python package - to avoid dependency issues, its own bundled Python environment is immutable, i.e. pip is not supported. I'm using it with a custom #miniforge environment. However, ensure to install "spyder-kernels" in this environment - otherwise, the miniforge-environment can't be connected to Spyder.
What is your favourite Python IDE?

@ashwinvis I have heard that #Anaconda is starting to shakedown larger academic institutes (most easily exceed the 200 employee threshold) using the default channel - at least one is looking at blocking use via their firewall as part of avoiding this!
Time to switch from #MiniConda etc to #MiniForge https://github.com/conda-forge/miniforge where the #CondaForge channel is set as the default (and only) channel.
