I built django-vtasks to replace Celery (task queue) in my open source project, GlitchTip. I wanted something with an asyncio-first approach that supports Valkey and Postgres backends. Sync tasks run in threads. We don't support every Celery broker and feature, but I think we have a good feature set and we outperform Celery in benchmarks. Being able to run my_task.aenqueue() is friendlier than doing this in Celery from an async view. It allows for a true asyncio valkey call, not sync_to_async. I found django-tasks not performant enough, as I need high concurrency. (As I understand, Django Tasks is modeled off of that project, so thank you to django-tasks folks). If this sounds useful, give it a try. Or better yet, submit a bug report or merge request.
