    🚀 :warning: Deprecations (will be removed in the next major release)

    • ✂ Remove

      • gensim.models.FastText.load_fasttext_format: use load_facebook_vectors to load embeddings only (faster, less CPU/memory usage, does not support training continuation) and load_facebook_model to load full model (slower, more CPU/memory intensive, supports training continuation)

      • gensim.examples
      • gensim.nosy
