My preferred way is `(f . g . h) x`: parentheses have good editor support, are very readable when there aren’t that many.

That's good too, but you still need one $ for a do block.

Not with -XBlockArguments you don't :)

It's actually been around since 8.6.1 but I personally have only started using it recently. There are certain situations where it's much nicer than $

I will always have a nostalgic love of `$ do` though :)
