I struggle with learning new languages from time to time and there's always been a learning curve from starting out to being proficient. But while Python itself I think provides an awesome developer experience, django seems less than awesome, and it's taken a while for me to feel proficient in Django.

Personally, I'm not a huge Django fan, but then again lots of people aren't huge Laravel/Symfony fans which is my web framework of choice if I'm building a monolith web app/API "software bus" sorta solution without roping in Java. That all said, I do love me some Python though! I use it as a general purpose tool to get semi-complex things done that are more scripting/job oriented vs. needing the orchestration that Django brings to the table. You could say it's a "cog" for me vs. the overall machine/engine. It's on my TODO list to get into some other Python framework libraries because I've seen lots of promising ones pop up since Django, if anyone has suggestions of what to poke my nose into I'm all ears!
