With weird Atom issues now (on Ubuntu 18.04 I can't install or update my packages), would love if anyone had a good browser based IDE service which is cheap and private.

Have you tried visual studio code? I have replace all my IDEs (Pycharm, WebStorm) with vscode and never looked back.

There are some issues if I am nitpicking but overall the experience is just outstanding.

Does vsc have good Django support?
Not built-in, but you can install extensions that cover your needs. Here are the VS Code extensions that have something to do with Django https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/search?term=django&targ...

Unfortunately, you'll have to test them for yourself since I don't have a use for them.

yes. I have been using it specifically for Django. You need to install the official python extension though.
try VSCodium.. its vscode without all of the MS telemetry stuff in it. I use it on fedora 29 and it runs great. Im not a django developer though but the community is great and there is a ton of extensions for pretty much everything.
