Django 2, python 3.4 cannot decode urlsafe_base64_decode (uidb64)

Question

I am trying to activate a user by email, work email, work with encodings, I used the approach from django1.11, which worked successfully.

In Django 1.11, the following is successfully decoded to 28, where uidb64 = b'Mjg '

force_text(urlsafe_base64_decode(uidb64))

In django 2 (2, 0, 0, 'final', 0) the above code decoding does not work and leads to an error

django.utils.encoding.DjangoUnicodeDecodeError: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0xc8 in position 1: invalid continuation byte. You passed in b'l\xc8\xe0' (<class 'bytes'>)

I also post my opinions just in case

from django.utils.encoding import force_bytes, force_text
from django.utils.http import urlsafe_base64_encode, urlsafe_base64_decode    
def signup(request):
    if request.method == 'POST':
        form = SignUpForm(request.POST)
        if form.is_valid():
            user = form.save(commit=False)
            user.is_active = False
            user.save()
            # auth_login(request, user)
            message = render_to_string('user_activate_email.html', {
                'user': user,
                'domain': Site.objects.get_current().domain,
                'uidb64': urlsafe_base64_encode(force_bytes(user.pk)),
                'token': account_activation_token.make_token(user),
            })
            mail_subject = 'Activate your blog account.'
            to_email = form.cleaned_data.get('email')
            email = EmailMessage(mail_subject, message, to=[to_email])
            email.send()
            messages.info(
                request, 'Activation link has been sent to your email!')
            # return redirect('home')
            return render(request, 'index.html')
    else:
        form = SignUpForm()
        return render(request, 'user_action.html', {'form': form})


def activate(request, uidb64, token):
    try:
        import pdb;
        pdb.set_trace()
        uid = urlsafe_base64_decode(uidb64).decode()
        user = User.objects.get(pk=uid)
    except(TypeError, ValueError, OverflowError):
        user = None
    if user is not None and account_activation_token.check_token(user, token):

        user.refresh_from_db()
        user.is_active = True

        user.save()
        auth_login(request, user)
        messages.info(request, 'Your account has been activated successfully!')
        return redirect('events:home')
    else:
        messages.info(
            request, 'Activation link is invalid or has been activated')
        return redirect('events:home')

PS: This is just a test before I work with CBV.
