X100F vs. X-Pro1 as everyday fun camera

Hey everyone, I’m sure this question or something similar has been beat into the dirt, but I can’t find a clear answer yet so I’m taking to a new thread to ask: if I’m looking to pickup a fun, street and everyday camera, how much better is the X100F than the x-pro1? When I say better, I mean specifically in terms of using back button focusing and in low light scenarios. I realize the ergonomic differences, and I know the xp1 will never have the brilliant acros film sim, but just from a daily use standpoint, will it frustrate me?

I don’t really care about the low megapixels, this is mostly going to be for internet use and even from an editing standpoint, I am purposely trying to keep it minimal. I want to just shoot, do some minor processing and upload. Mostly, I’d like to just stick to jpegs.

Truthfully, My heart is leaning towards the xp1, despite only having experience with both the x100T and F. There’s something about it that really draws me in. But my brain keeps saying get the F. What’s more frustrating is the lack of video content on YouTube showing firmware updated xp1’s that would be more in line with what the camera is today, and not 2012/2013.
