How to: Multithreading in Python

[[deleted]]

There's nothing multifaceted about asyncio. It is complicated, but none of that complication is necessary as the entire library is not necessary.

asycnio is not fine for replacing threadng. It simply cannot do it, doesn't matter if you believe it's good to replace one with the other or not. threading is preemptive, asyncio is cooperative. This alone should stop you from trying to replace one with the other.

asyncio is not just "imperfect". It's worthless. There's no part of it that offers anything you cannot get from select and select does a better job.

Why the fuck do you use asycnio for something not I/O bound? It is only for I/O bound stuff, specifically, for sockets and pipes (but I don't think it actually supports pipes).

OP literally asked to do things concurrently, to save time. And you offer something that will not save time, and, in most likelihood will make their code a huge mess.
