We had a terrible time with Dramatiq; very buggy and resource-heavy. We ended up switching to SNS/SQS combo

For small scale use cases resource heavy does not matter, but only the ease of use. Amazon proprietary APIs are notoriously hard to work with.

Ah that's unfortunate, I had a pretty OK time with Dramatiq (coming off of Celery especially). But I imagine this is dependent on your scale.

I think most people reading this site are working on relatively small systems (that still need background tasks!) and the fixed costs of background tasks can be reasonable. But I could be totally offbase
