Should triple quoted double quotes ever get converted to triple quoted single quotes? about blue HOT 6 CLOSED

In this case, I do prefer the triple single quotes. The benefits are ease of typing and consistency.

It's funny; I don't know why but I always use TQDQs in these cases, but I'm okay that blue makes this transformation.

@grantjenks Here are my 2 cents.

I love that blue has changed all the strings back into single quotes.
I do not like that it changed triple-quoted strings into '''string'''.
I believe that more widespread practice is to use double quotes for triple-quoted strings, even among people who use single quotes for strings. Thus """string"""

I hope we can tweak blue to do that.
Can we please reopen and reconsider this issue.

Hi @zvezdan , I'm happy to reopen and reconsider.

Maybe we can do a quick analysis to see how prevalent """ is vs. ''' for non-docstrings.

But since @warsaw was similarly bugged when he first saw it, it's probably worth fixing. I don't have a strong opinion here. The ''' behavior was just easier in the code.

I created a totally informal Twitter poll although TBH, this is the first Twitter poll I created so I'm not sure if I did it right 😄!
