Hello all.
I have run a tkinter wiki (https://tkinter.unpythonic.net/) for many years. It
doesn't see much traffic, and my interests and hobby time allocation haven't
really aligned with it for quite some time.

As a workaround, I believe you can use

No, Tkinter callbacks are not run in separate threads.
When you see cb_close being called during cb_run, it's all in a single
thread, with a call stack that looks like

short answer: yes, it's an incompatibility. You may be able to modify
