There's lot more Stack Overflow answers for 2.x than 3.x, which is helpful for going fast. I'm not using 3.x for personal projects, yet.

- david-cako 9y agoI cannot imagine any cases where a general python 2 answer isn't applicable to python 3, with at most a minor change. In my experience, the most you are doing is shifting around imports (urllib, for instance), declaring classes slightly differently, handling string encoding differently, or printing, format-ing, and raising exceptions slightly differently (and in a more sensible syntax for all, imo). On the contrary, there are new modules that you are missing out on and you will regularly run into "it's in the stdlib" answers that are not applicable to you.
- pheldagryph 9y agoDefinitely, yes. The next time I have to handle datetimes and time zones, I am heading for 3.x and not looking back.
