Growing pains are never fun. It doesn't mention (at least that I read) if they're using HashiCorp Open Source or Enterprise. Open Source is great and I owe my career to it but they might be hitting the scale when the Enterprise features and support start to be worth the price.

I've only used Fly.io for a personal app but I think it's a great option so I hope they keep growing.

Agreed, any application regardless of language or framework can age poorly. I've seen some pretty solid "long running" Rails applications that were just maintained well.

Not sure what microservice architecture has to do with it. You can have microservices that are Rails apps. :)

Their private encrypted git repos and file storage is pretty solid.

Microsoft OneNote for some stuff.

Mostly Quiver (or Boostnote) with the files backed up to a remote git repo. Added benefit of being a format that is not locked in and can be parsed out later if required.

I have the same question but just to know what a "Blockchain Engineer" does.

I’ve been exploring keeping a logbook for awhile. Some apps I recommend: Quiver, Boostnote, and jrnl.sh

All of them have open data formats so you’re not locked in and can save everything in git which are requirements for me.

Yes! Jrnl is awesome and I've been using it for awhile now. Highly recommend it.
