Coming from Rails I think that Django's ORM is too complicated, like almost everything in Django and in Python. However I'm using Python, Ruby and Elixir in different projects and Ecto is much more complicated. It makes me want to write plain SQL as I did in the early 90s.

Actually I'd be OK writing SQL. It's just inconvenient having to decode the results and handle migrations manually. I did plain SQL migrations before ORMs. That's not something I want to be back to.
