Which python:3.10 variant is supported longest?
None: every python:3.10 variant has been unsupported since 1 Oct 2026, when Python 3.10 itself reached end of life. Move to a newer python tag.
Where this comes from
The OS release under each tag is read from that tag’s build steps on Docker Hub (the official python image), once a day; last read on 16 Oct 2026. Support dates come from endoflife.date (MIT License), which follows Python’s release policy. Official images are rebuilt on newer OS releases over time, so a tag can move to a newer OS; this page follows it. See Methodology & sources.
