According to Distrowatch, out of the top twelve (12) distros, all but #8--Arch--use Python2.

The other 11 in order of popularity are #1 Mint, #2 Ubuntu, #3 Debian, #4 Mageia, #5 Fedora, #6 openSUSE, #7 elementary OS, #9 Zorin OS, #10 Puppy Linux, #11 PCLinuxOS, and #12 CentOS.

Most Linux distros use Python 2.



That's not quite a complete picture. Those distros include Python 2 as the default "python" executable, but many include Python 3 as python3, and even more have standard python3 packages that just aren't installed by default.
