Very cool use case for CRDTs! I've seen a bunch of different use cases from other products like https://liveblocks.io/ and https://electric-sql.com/. It's interesting how CRDTs are now taking hold so much for all these collaborative syncing scenarios. Wonder what's driving the proliferation now given they've been around for awhile?

I've been interested in them since the early days of Atom, but it's just taken a while for me to develop as an engineer and build a system around the theory that puts them to practical use.
