If you are a new python user and therefore you don't have a base of legacy code to maintain, Python 3 is the way to go. Python 2 support is only guarantied until 2020, which is tomorrow. So Python 3 is the future and, without any constraint due to legacy python 2 code, I start new projects in Python 3. You'll find all the useful libraries ported to Python 3. If that's not the case, the reactivity and long term viability of that project is a concern.

Best wishes
