it is extremely hard to break and just works

automatic self-healing and management

it will tell you where the bottleneck is so you can automatically scale it up

setting it up involves copying a single fdb.cluster file and starting it

if by web scale you mean Apple CloudKit and Snowflake scale, yes, actually

it in fact does not write your data to /dev/null

it is a KV store, which means you can build a lot, but also means you need to build your own architecture

perfect for nostr use cases

it struggles a bit with large values, but you can easily fix that by using SeaweedFS (some-maintenance-required FS that allows storing a lot of small files like 100KB)
