Python Best Practices for a New Project in 2021
That is a great write-up! One extra bit I'd recommend to this list is using https://github.com/ikamensh/flynt to convert string format into f-strings. It requires Python 3.6.

Which is your favourite or go-to YouTube channel for being up-to-date on Python?
He made yesqa and pyupgrade (among others), and also works on flake8. His main job is for https://sentry.io/.

Reasons Python Sucks
That's a decade to make a 30 second change. Add something like https://github.com/asottile/pyupgrade to your pre-commit hooks and you won't even need 25 of those seconds.

Is there a way to convert python 2 to 3 without finding every single line and fix it?
There is also pyupgrade: https://github.com/asottile/pyupgrade

I've recently learned about better support for type-hinting. What other 'best practices' have been introduced in Python 3.10 or newer?
pyupgrade is a useful tool that can help you find some of these things.

Flake8 took down the gitlab repository in favor of github
and last a little plug or two -- because I do this all for free and despite millions benefiting I receive zero proportional benefit from the maintenance work I put in -- consider sponsoring or maybe check out pre-commit.ci which would have automatically fixed this problem for you a year and a half ago

Django upgrade services?
Running https://github.com/adamchainz/django-upgrade with https://github.com/asottile/pyupgrade recursively will give an idea about how much work is there on Django side. Still, there may have dependency on third party libraries (both django+python). Another thing to consider is which role Django performing here, serving APIs or html views. As good test coverage is already there, you are on lucky side.

It’s Time to Say Goodbye to These Obsolete Python Libraries
Such goodness here and even points to an interesting project I’d never heard of for automated “de-deprecation”

Is there a linter which would suggest using elif rather than an else in an if clause?
I do would like to recommend pyupgrade. Just pip install as expected and then run pyupgrade --py310-plus to drag your code kicking and screaming into $CURRENT_YEAR. Or at least into whatever version you're using :)
