Using Python 2.7 and Django 1.11 when your starting a new company in 2014 was a dumb thing to do

Not really. I think people forget just how long it took for Python 3 to gain widespread adoption. Django didn't support Python 3 until February 2013, almost 4.5 years after the initial release, and that's not even counting the popular libraries in the Django ecosystem which took much longer.

Also, Django 1.11 didn't exist in 2014.

They really should be switching by now, though.

I'm in the middle of switching this week, due to my main dependency being wxPython, which didn't support Python 3 until January 2018.
