Quarkus is just a little too much like magic for me. Too many annotations hides what's going on underneath, which makes me feel a bit uncomfortable. But I'll accept that's probably just me.
Vertx on the other hand, which it is built on and which itself builds on Netty, is excellent, and very performant for typical backend services. It now has support for virtual threads too.
