I'm the same. I'm both a Python and C# developer. I use Python for all my personal projects, and given the choice, for MOST projects I'll always pitch Python first, Django gives me the strengths of something like ASP .NET / EF Core, but without feeling like they're building more abandonware. I really love Blazor and heck even MAUI, but will they still be there in 10 years? Probably, will Microsoft have some new project that replaces them? probably.
Then there's Django. Rarely changes, only for the better. Upgrading Django versions is usually painless too. The ORM is fine enough.
It is ironic when companies like Microsoft and Google end up showing the sort of "permanent reimplentation" behaviour that used to be typical of opensource, whereas certain opensource projects persist seemingly forever. Python, Django, Emacs - these things will likely see the end of the galaxy; meanwhile, big companies now build and discard key projects every other year.
