The WASI support in CPython has moved along very well and it is an early target via componentize-py[1]. Notes on WASI support in Python can be found in PEP 816[2]; CPython will be jumping from 0.1 to 0.3 (0.2 is adapted in componentize-py) which should unlock a fair bit of support, especially once cooperative threads lands (providing a pthreads impl in wasi-libc).

it’s great to see this stuff moving forward, I’m just impatient for it to all land! Plus one of the challenges IMO is that you also still need support in the runtimes, which takes time. Hopefully the state of the world will look better for WASI in a few months/years.
