When I started coding in python, these two things surprised me.

1. my code is inconsistently indented with the combination of tabs and
spaces. Even lines looked intended, but it is not.

Then you have a problem with your code editor - not with Python.

2. python requires to pass "self" to all instance methods

Nope. Python requires that function used as instance methods take the instance as first argument (and that functions used as classmethods take the class as first argument). It's the method object's duty to actually pass the appropriate object to the function. The rational is that it allows to built methods above two more generic constructs (namely: functions and the descriptor protocol) instead of having to special-case them.

and I missed ":" often. :)

Your editor should not indent the next line then. Either you failed to correctly configure your editor, or it's broken.
