Especially considering Django powers Instagram and Pinterest's backends. At some point, Python's creator Guido van Rossum also said "My personal favorite -- and I expect that that will remain a personal favorite for a long time -- is something named Django. ... I highly recommend it." Personally, I use Django with REST Framework (https://www.django-rest-framework.org https://www.django-rest-framework.org). I've enjoyed using it tremendously for the past few years. One important feature Django lacks right now is asyncio support. There are plans to add it though (https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/django-developers/Kw7-xV6TrSM https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/django-developers/Kw...). Hopefully that happens soon.
