Content
The latest doc has a quick mention about the fact that daemon is not used in the Unix sens, so it seems fine now B-) https://docs.python.org/3/library/multiprocessing.html?#multiprocessing.Process.daemon """Additionally, these are not Unix daemons or services, they are normal processes that will be terminated (and not joined) if non-daemonic processes have exited.""" My paragraph was just my one attempt at distinguishing concepts, it was never part of the official docs
