that l in list, it needs to be uppercased.

It's a bug in certbot_dns_tencentcloud

NB: both list and dict need to be lowercased in python 3.9

At the top of the file you just modified there's also:

from typing import Dict

You should change that to:

from typing import Dict,List

change line 251
def describe_record_list(self, domain: str) -> list[Dict]:
to

It's for type hinting. It's not necessary for the proper functioning of the code itself.
