Are there features in python 3.10 that are missing from 3.6 that you need? If not then the easy thing to do is use 3.6. You could build a docker containers you based on fedora 35 that has the python 3.10 and the python libs that you need installed and use that. You would use podman and its tools to build and run the container on Centos 8. For my work I'm planning to use 3.6 on Centos 8 as that is one thing I can avoid packaging and maintaining myself.
