The timing of this release couldn't have been more fortuitous for me, I was just recently getting myself reacquainted with the options available for background processing in the Go landscape, and I was specifically looking for options that could be integrated as a library and were built on top of a RDBMS (specifically SQLite + Postgres for different use cases) as opposed to something like a redis/valkey.

Edit: I'm also curious if anyone is aware of companies or open source projects that are building with River?

As one of River's creators, I'm aware of many companies using it, including names you've heard of :) One cool open source project I've seen recently is this open source pager / on-call system from Target called GoAlert: https://github.com/target/goalert
