The actix repository on github doesn't seem to be very active, and everyone seems to be focused on actix-web instead, is anyone out there using plain actix or any other actor-model implementation in Rust?
I am the author of Stakker (a lightweight actor-model runtime), and it is reliable and being used in production. Whilst I'd like to add more stuff to it (like remote actors, or actor coroutines), time is limited (as ever). But the core actor functionality, MIO interface and logging are all working and will be maintained. Also, I will implement whatever interface the async portability initiative comes up with, to allow hosting portable async crates in the future.
My understanding was that Actix is more-or-less deprecated/abandoned and that Actix-Web "is" "Actix", now. The facts that https://actix.rs points to the Actix-Web site, and that said site for Actix-Web has a giant banner than only says "Actix" and not "Web" seems to confirm that.
