Maybe I’m in the minority, but I’ve found that if the right ORM fits your brain, it can be incredibly useful for a lot of CRUD operations, especially if it offers escape hatches to lower levels of the abstractions; ultimately down to raw SQL. SQLAlchemy for Python is that for me. I find it incredibly expressive and allows me to write complex queries that are readable, maintainable, and perfomant. Yes, it requires learning, but it’s the right tool for the job, personally.
