WebSockets vs. Server-Sent-Events vs. Long-Polling vs. WebRTC vs. WebTransport
Hello, I am author of https://github.com/centrifugal/centrifugo. Our users can choose from WebSocket, EventSource, WebTransport (experimental stabilize in the future). WebRTC is out of scope as the main purpose is central server based real-time json/binary messaging, and WebRTC makes things much more complex since it shines for peer-to-peer and rich media communications.
What I'd like to add is that Centrifugo also supports HTTP-streaming – not mentioned by the OP – but this is a transport which has advantages over Eventsource - like possibility to send POST body on initial request from web browser (with SSE you can not), it supports binary, and with Readable Streams browser API it's widely supported by modern browsers.
Another thing I'd like to mention about Centrifugo - it supports bidirectional WebSocket fallbacks with EventSource and HTTP-streaming, and does this without sticky sessions requirement. I guess nobody else have this at this point. See https://centrifugal.dev/blog/2022/07/19/centrifugo-v4-releas.... Which solves one more practical concern. Sticky sessions is an optimization in Centrifugo case, not a requirement.
If you are interested in topic, we also have a post about WebSocket scalability - https://centrifugal.dev/blog/2020/11/12/scaling-websocket - it covers some design decisions made in Centrifugo.
- Centrifugo v5.1.0 released, with new powers for real-time messaging tasks, now with proxy GRPC subscription streams – similar to WebSocketd but over the network

Integrating websockets into my current app
Check out https://github.com/centrifugal/centrifugo - it was initially designed to be a standalone language-agnostic real-time messaging server. So it may be used with Django without radical change in the existing application and using ASGI. It can also provide a much better performance if you care about it.

Laravel Websockets vs Soketi vs Laravel Echo Server
Hello! Theoretically you can take a look at https://github.com/centrifugal/centrifugo - which is a standalone self-hosted real-time messaging server. It does not have native support for Laravel and not compatible with Pusher protocol, though integrating with any backend system, including Laravel: see the blog post https://centrifugal.dev/blog/2021/12/14/laravel-multi-room-chat-tutorial, also has some helper packages:

Is Python a good option to implement Websockets?
Hello, it's also possible to design an app in a way that its core will be built with Python, but WebSocket part delegated to something external and efficient like https://github.com/centrifugal/centrifugo – the benefit of the approach is that application business logic is completely decoupled from the real-time transport layer. This may lead to a scalable design with graceful degradation. I think this is especially useful when you already have backend built with Django and need to handle millions of concurrent connections.

Laravel event not being broadcasted web laravel-websockets server
I'm working on a real-time chat application but facing some issues while working with broadcasting events using the laravel-websockets package. Things were working fine yesterday and I was receiving messages from private and public channels but I don't know why I'm not receiving messages anymore.

Update view with real-time data from backend
Yes I did and even found that documentation but I just wanted to confirm that I'm on the right track. Do you suggest using Laravel-Websockets or Pusher as a broadcaster? I am inclined to use Laravel-Websockets just because it's free (so I wouldn't have recurrent costs), however I don't want to end up with limitations or issues later on.

Using Laravel as Backend for a Multiplayer Game
Laravel Echo is free and part of Laravel. You need to use it with a websockets server or a service like Pusher or Ably, and that is what you pay for. But if you make your own websockets server with Laravel Websockets, as u/phoogkamer suggested, you can host your own websockets server on your infrastructure.
