Yes, I think people are polite and give the new framework a chance. Anything that is not Django is of course appreciated.

I do not understand why Dropbox and Instagram are cited as references. People also cited Google 10 years ago, but Google has now fired the Python team.

Dropbox moved large parts to Golang, and Instagram code does not seem to be something to aspire for. Perhaps Instagram manages to prop up a horrible stack by throwing hundreds of developers at the problem. Not every company, especially startups, can afford that.

If the new free threading becomes the default, I would not expose Python directly to the web. Already before that CPython has show a lackadaisical attitude towards threading correctness and convoluted abstractions that are barely auditable.
