Install Vim via Homebrew with Python AND Python3 Support

The solution above does not work.

I tried

brew install vim -python -python3

But it doesn't support python2. What is the current way to support both python2 and python3 with vim? Thanks. (I used linuxbrew.)

$ vim --version | grep python

    The answer at the linked question clearly says: "*Vim compiled with **both, or with 'dynamic' is only available on Windows** versions. **Mac/*nix/etc can only use one version** of Python.*" If you need `vim` with both branches of Python you should compile it from sources. – phd Mar 06 '21 at 06:54

    See `:help python-dynamic` and `:help python-2-and-3`. – romainl Mar 06 '21 at 10:48
