Yeah that list right there. That's exactly it.
We don't hate Celery at all. It's just a bit harder to get it to do certain things and requires a bit more coding and understanding of celery than what we want to invest time and effort in.
Again, no hate towards Celery. It's not bad. We just want to see if there are better options out there.
But if you are too small for celery, it seems a hard sell to buy a premium message queue?
My top problem with my celery setup has always been visibility. AI and I spent and afternoon setting up a Prometheus / grafana server, and wiring celery into it. Has been a game changer. When things go crazy in prod, I can usually single it down to a specific task for a specific user. Has made my troubleshooting go from days to minutes. The actual queue and execute part has always been easy / worked well.
