   I've recently switched to doing python 3 recreationally (from 2.x) but the part that's tripping me up the most isn't the bytestrings or anything like that...

   it's typing 'foo{}' and being about to type .format, then going "wait I can use an f-string" and having to go change it to f'foo{arg}'.

     it feels like a hiccup and tosses me out of my flow. someday I'll internalized f-strings... but that'll probably be right before I have to write a bunch of py2 code

     @gkrnours oh I know, but I'd prefer to use f-strings, they're more concise and straightforward. I just keep forgetting I can use them now

     @foone you don't have to. The .format isn't going away, especially as f-string must do the interpolation right away while you can receive a "template" string as an argument then slap a format on it
