I was going to deploy a Python 2.7 web app to Azure today, but I could not find Python 2.7 in the list of runtimes - only some 3.x variants. Has support for Python 2.7 web apps been removed from Azure?

Azure App Service
Azure App Service

Azure App Service is a service used to create and deploy scalable, mission-critical web apps.

    Python 2 is EOL.
    As of January 1st, 2020 no new bug reports, fixes, or changes will be made to Python 2, and Python 2 is no longer supported. A few changes were made between when we released Python 2.7. 17 (on October 19th, 2019) and January 1st.

    Current Azure App service, Install Python 3.6 or higher.
