I maintains a side project in Django since 5+ years now.

The scope has been reduce to almost nothing. I have spend like 20h on it in 2022. But it still being used.

Django helps by how boring and solid it feels.

A similar project in node would probably not build anymore

I know of a 15 years django project that runs on 2.7 that is still making money. It got reinstalled this month on brand new Ubuntu servers out of a rubbish requirements.txt, and it worked.

So much for saying python packaging sucks.

Yep, same.

Django can also serve a boatload of concurrent users, way more than one would think. It is a boring, old-fashioned, but stable and very functional framework.
