Sidekiq has stayed with me for most of my rails projects. Happy to read this. And I bet I'll continue to remember it as I run into projects that were inspired by it, like Shoryuken (which tries to be "sidekiq for AWS SNS/SQS" https://github.com/ruby-shoryuken/shoryuken).
Oban is really great: https://getoban.pro
Built on Postgres, it lets your background jobs achieve transactionality and consistency with your database. Its architecture is also well designed to allow it to scale up to about as much as Postgres can handle. The Pro version comes with a great web UI built with Phoenix LiveView that does just about everything one could ask for.
I think the lack of a dominant JavaScript domain model syntax has limited the availability of admin tools like django-admin. Maybe something driven by OpenAPI/Swagger model definitions?
It is ancient and no longer upgraded (and based on angularjs), but I'd argue that ng-admin (https://github.com/marmelab/ng-admin) is the fastest SPA/JavaScript admin framework out there. It is a bit opinionated about paging and filtering (and painful to do moderately complex UI customization), but beyond that I have seen nothing that has come close to the same level of "quickly get CRUD admin UI available" in react/vue land, largely because (similar to django) it had its own domain entity model.
The same team moved from there to react-admin, and looking at a couple of react-admin experiences I've been involved in I'd argue that it wasn't aiming for the same ease of use.
And Directus was recently ported from PHP to JavaScript as well: https://directus.io/
It surprises me that it is a problem that needs to be solved, and not just a way it should be done from day one. Back in 2011 I wrote a small ruby class that interacts with redis and provides me a reliable method to consume messages from queue.
Back than I just read the redis docs, understands that BRPOPLPUSH is the right method to call, and made a few ruby functions to do so, you could see it here [1], they are plain and simple.
From my perspective, it's just feature starving OSS part, to push customers towards the paid solution.
