Python 3 is the worst and the best.
* Language itself is nicer and generally more consistent than py2; caveat: also more complex
* Ecosystem is now fragmented and discombobulated
* Byte strings or whatever are more annoying than in any other programming language I've encountered, hard to say whether this is an improvement or regression compared to Python 2. I get more runtime errors, for sure.
* Breaks a lot of old, useful snippets and packages; they are no longer relevant, but you only find out they are broken when you try to run or import them
* ??? Please fill in anything I've missed!
