Pretty much ever other django project I work on starts with sqlite, on developers machine and only later gets migrated to PostgreSQL. I'm also dealing with legacy mysql website that didn't use ORM and I really wish they used an ORM. They hard coded column names, relationships, in absolutely most random places. Yes, this could be fixed with having better programmers, but if they used an ORM I could simply ignore a whole class of legacy!

I dunno, I've seen ORM absolutely abused. Never underestimate the effect a tool can have in the hands of a clueless person.

That said, there are probably fewer SQL injections in ORM code than typical mysql messes.
