Why not using something trio or curio? They are quite easy to learn, very powerful and have an approach similar to channel in golang.

Those are not multithreading, they are asynchronous io which is different. With asynchronous io in Python the only concurrency/parallelism you can do is for IO.

Multithreading in Python currently has the same limitation though but it needn't.
