Evaluating Spring Boot, Quarkus, or Micronaut and why for Stargate v2
OP doesn't seem to be aware of Armeria https://github.com/line/armeria

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).

Reactive database access on the JVM
Hibernate Reactive integrates with Vert.x, but an extension allows to bridge to Project Reactor if wanted

Looking for a coroutine-based message broker implementation for inter-app communication.
Have you looked at Vert.x?

What's the state of server-side frameworks with Kotlin support today for small teams?
Explicitly so:
-
Anything close beam/otp for other languages?
I really like Eclipse Vert.x... As both an Erlang dev and Java dev, it's a great synergy and soon to have support for Virtual Threads similar to BEAM.
-
Go doesn’t do any magical stuff and I love that
There are many lean, popular, non-magical libraries in Java land. (https://quarkus.io/, https://vertx.io/, etc). Spring is a monster 😱. Its like comparing Kubernetes (written in Go) with some lean framework in another lang.
