The Django ORM can't just be used with asyncio directly, sadly. The database_sync_to_async function you found there will help you call the ORM from asynchronous code, but it still runs the ORM in a synchronous thread (see https://channels.readthedocs.io/en/latest/topics/databases.html)
The project to make the ORM truly async is a tough one and yet to be started.
