f strings. I am averse to complexity and they actually do reduce complexity. Like I actively avoid object oriented stuff, asyncio,etc... simplicity, predictability and maintainability rule for me. Most other python newer features I have seen add more code or complexity. I suppose managing packages, build environments and constantly migrating code is something some people enjoy so no problem with it until it becomes my problem by way of dependency hell. My favorite python feature is not a python feature but it should be: pyenv -- because backwards compatibility is not a cool new feature for language devs.
