I was exploring reactive streams with project reactor and I encountered a use case where I needed to skip to the next event if an error occurred during the processing of the current event (e.g. deserialization issue).

Kotlin also has a construct for asynchronous collections/streams. Kotlin's version of AsyncSequence is called a Flow. Just as Swift's AsyncSequence builds upon prior experience with RxSwift and Combine, Kotlin's Flow APIs build upon earlier stream/collection APIs in the JVM ecosystem: Java's RxJava, Java8 Streams, Project Reactor, and Scala's Akka.

Java's projectreactor.io ? It is widely used in Java world, see Spring WebFlux.

I guess more a closer comparison would be with the Project Reactor https://projectreactor.io/ which is also a low level framework for data processing.

Spring Framework is one of the most popular choices for web applications. It comes with a great ecosystem, tooling, and support. Spring applications are mainly written in Java. While they can serve quite well in many different domains and use cases, they may not be a good fit for modern-day applications which require low-latency and high-throughput. This is where the reactive programming paradigm could help because the paradigm is designed to address these issues by its non-blocking nature. Spring already supports reactive programming via Project Reactor.

The reactive streams API provides the specification for non-blocking async streams processing with back pressure mechanism, and Project Reactor is an implementation written in java.

With respect to Loom, it could be much easier for synchronous and reactive code to interoperate using schedulers that take advantage of Loom. The impact of Loom on Project Reactor was discussed in #3084, you might find it interesting.
