will merge this and push a new version after the ci passes

@KazuCocoa is the new version published? I tried to downgrade python client but 2.1.3 is not available to restrict the selenoum to use 4.0.x as mentioned in the linked issue. Is there anything I missed? Thanks for your response.

It is 2.1.4 for now. not sure why, but 2.1.3 did not in the list while https://pypi.org/project/Appium-Python-Client/2.1.3/ existed.

Thanks @KazuCocoa , and i believe this 2.1.4. is the workaround for appium/appium#16503. Is my understanding correct?

Yes, correct.

moving forward should we just reimplement the commands that selenium removed, but in the appium client? so we can be compatible with selenium updates?
