No.  There just is evidence that _some_ Python3 related problem has been
reported and fixed.  That makes it likely that someone else would have
been seeing your problems already.  Not more, not less.

If you are seeing some problem, it is unlikely you are imagining it.
Maybe more functions have been deprecated since then, maybe you are only
seeing warnings that someone else did not yet notice.  Maybe the exact
versions differ, maybe the problems depend on other differences in your
setup.

Without more details, it is hard to tell.  The default build
environments of LilyPond as well as Ubuntu use Python 2 by default.  So
it is to be expected that Python 3 operation has not seen thorough
testing at this point of time.

Making a list of problems and cutting&pasting the respective error
messages occuring under which calls/circumstances would be working
towards getting this fixed.

Can you do that?
