I still use proto2 if possible. The syntactic sugar around `oneof` wasn't nice enough to merit dealing with proto3's implicit presence -- maybe it is just because I learned proto2 with C++ and don't use Go, but proto3 just seemed like a big step back and introduced footguns that weren't there before. Happy to hear they are reverting some of those finally.
