It's interesting to me that people still doubt that CRDTs can be used in practice. The fact is that they are already being used in practice by many companies with millions of users for applications like rich-text editing and state management in 3d applications.

In fact, Yjs - a CRDT implementation- is the most downloaded solution for collaborative applications. Even more than ShareDB (the most popular OT-based solution).
