Related, I also wrote my own distributed task queue in Python [0] and TypeScript [1] with a Show HN [2]. Time it took was about a week. I like your features, but it was easy to write my own so I'm curious how you're building a money making business around an open source product. Maybe the fact everyone writes their own means there's no best solution now, so you're trying to be that and do paid closed source features for revenue?

Nice, Waka looks cool! I've talked a bit about the tradeoffs with library-mode pollers, for example here: >>39644327 . Which isn't to say they don't make sense, but scaling wise I think there can be some drawbacks.

We'd like to make money off of our cloud version. See the comment on pricing here - >>39653084 - which also links to other comments about pricing, sorry about that.
