Works fine for me on macOS. I am using venv the same way you do except some global ones for certain tools.

I thought one of the advantages of pyenv was that you switched to also creating virtual envs using pyenv and managed virtual environments with it too. Maybe not.

Pyenv is for Python versions. There is a plugin for virtualenvs that can be useful for some specific cases but I rarely use it nowadays.

Also, when working on packages supporting multiple versions it was very helpful to use tox with pyenv.
