"Microservices" are such a fucking awful idea that so obviously has no redeeming features if you think about it for five minutes and I have come to deeply distrust anyone who promotes it as a 'modern' architecture

@joepie91 I think it makes sense... if youre at the scale of Netflix or something like that. I feel like a lot of the hype is kind of like, people doing it because they think it will make them like Netflix?

@operand It doesn't make sense at Netflix scale either, and this is why: https://social.pixie.town/@joepie91/114913879539717578
The scale just doesn't matter. The correct scaling strategy at *any* scale is "find where the bottlenecks and constraints are, and scale specifically that part" and that just isn't what microservices do.
