When you installed the adafruit library and ran the setup with :- sudo python setup.py install, this only sets it up for python 2. If you want to use the library with python3 you have to run this setup.:- sudo python3 setup.py install

hiya, wanna try our circuitpython version of this library? it works for sure on raspi and we have detailed instruction here:
https://learn.adafruit.com/16-channel-pwm-servo-driver/python-circuitpython
this library will be deprecated
