My guess he implemented those using Kotlin Coroutines to build much more scalable and more thread safe implementations. Concepts it offers like Structured concurrency are really powerful.

True, Coroutines were very heavily used. It was kind of magical how services which nobody wanted to touch with a 10 ft pole due to their complexity for almost years got rewritten in mere days or weeks at most. Those big microservices were broken down to even smaller microservices.
