Serious question: Django doesn't even have lazy loading. Why do people use it? Am I missing something? No way I'd wait a few seconds to get something big from the db

What are you referring to?

Lazy loading in Rails tends to refer to how Active Record waits until access time to send the query: https://rubyinrails.com/2014/01/08/what-is-lazy-loading-in-r...

It's still synchronous.

Django has this type of lazy loading as well: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.1/ref/models/querysets/#...

Yes it does, the problem seems to be that no one bothers to learn how the ORM works.
