I have both Python and Golang web services in production for years, none of them cause much headache. I'm not running a hyperscale startup though and server hosting is the smallest cost factor for running my products, so I don't worry about performance that much. Most workloads are IO-bound (database queries) in any case, so Python isn't too much at a disadvantage over Golang or Rust there. In terms of stability I never had any major issue with Python services, and when minor issues occured the logging and tracebacks were so good that it was easy to isolate and fix the problem (the same is also true for Golang). I guess the older you become the less you care about specific tools or languages, for me it's mostly the general architecture and operating principles of the software that determines if a system will be brittle or not.
