Best library for messenger backend (JVM)
Armeria (https://armeria.dev/) is a very underrated framework and does not get enough love, it works fabulously with Kotlin (coroutines support also built-in) and integrates nicely with GRPC, Thrift, etc. The maintainers are very responsive and nice and always helping people out.

Google hired union-busting consultants to convince employees “unions suck”
Honestly yes? Higher pay, less overtime.
Enjoy https://github.com/line/armeria from a unionized tech company of South Korea!

Java Equivalent of Express.js for REST
If you want something really small that simply let's you expose REST APIs using plain Java, without the IoC containers, you might want to check out Javalin, Ratpack or Armeria

A Kotlin programmer's approach to microservices?
Check out Armeria, it's a newer framework from the creator of Netty for micro services and comes with many builtin functionalities for service discovery, logging and fault tolerance. It's getting a lot of adoption from companies like Slack, Doordash, Afterpay and Databricks too. It kind of reminds me of Finagle from the Scala ecosystem in that it supports many different protocols (gRPC, thrift and HTTP).

Firefly – A new compiler and runtime for BEAM languages
There are details on this also: https://github.com/GetFirefly/firefly#runtime
Generally it should be assumed that actors and their concurrency model is fully supported as that is a part of the core semantics for BEAM languages.

I think this project used to be called Lumen until pretty recently - https://github.com/GetFirefly/firefly

Is there a way to create client-side interactivity like Vue or React with only Elixir?
Probably not a practical solution for what you are building now, but it's worth pointing out Lumen, an Erlang VM implementation that compiles to WebAssembly, and could one day enable Elixir on the frontend.

You had a head start, Gopher, but you can't outrun this crab.
Another vector could be some tooling that makes it easy to run Go programs compiled to Wasm run inside of Wasmtime environment hosted in Rust. If we run the go tooling in the same system, one could point this tool at a Go repo and be running that Go in a matter of milliseconds. A fun feature would be running channels across separate Wasm envs. Or maybe use Lumen.

If you were in charge of a startup tech stack, how would you use elixir to actually scale and make every work seamlessly?
Wish the Elixir WASM project -- Lumen -- were active. It seems like nothing much is happening on it.
