The Gorilla web toolkit project is being revived, all repos are out of archive mode.
In fact, it has zero dependencies outside of std lib in it's core: https://github.com/go-chi/chi/blob/master/go.mod

is it possible to limit the body param size for all routes in net/http i'm also using go-chi
Interesting. go-chi added it as a middleware 4 months ago, but its not in the module docs since they haven't tagged a version since Dec 2022: https://github.com/go-chi/chi/blob/master/middleware/request_size.go

Websocket memory usage
What I can say is that if you will use Gorilla Websocket (https://github.com/gorilla/websocket) (it's archived now unfortunately, but still super robust) - then you can go to sth like 15-20kb per connection - see https://github.com/FZambia/go_websocket_memory - to achieve this you need to reduce read buffer size, reuse write buffers, use goroutine after hijacking connection (following chat example in Gorilla WebSocket repo).

Is there an alternative to gorilla websocket?
No Bugs? https://github.com/gorilla/websocket/issues Even if that were true at the time of stoping development, "No bugs" is something that can never be said for any software. I really wish this community stopped recomending to use abandoned libraries if only for the potential Security issues. A not maintained Library is a very lucrative target for vulnerability hunting.
- As gorilla websocket has been archived which library can we use?

Gorilla/websocket or Melody?
I'm looking to build a game server that uses web sockets to communicate with clients, I've looked into some of the libraries and the main ones seem to be gorilla websockets and melody.

If this is what your import looks like "github.com/gorilla/websocket" that's wrong it should be just "github.com/gorilla/websocket"
