   Python has been my most used programming language since at least 2016 and it already had asyncio back then but with a different syntax.

   However, I find myself not using asyncio even when faced with embarrassingly parallel problems, e.g. I downloaded 2400 JSON files this week sequentially.

   I wonder if other #Python programmers reach for #asyncio intuitively.

   Also, would a #Golang or #NodeJS programmer use goroutines/promises without thinking twice in the above situation? :blobthink:

     @njoseph concurrent.futures is enough for my use cases... I suppose asyncio has its space but it seems is quite restricted to some use cases.
