Purely as an ignorant outsider here, but now I've seen Roblox and Fly.io have either crippling outages or an inability to scale due to issues in Consul. It's not a good look.

  Fly.io committed a bug fix back to Consul, and Roblox’s 3-day outage was due to flaws in Consul streaming.

    Consul has been great for us. It handled an unreasonable problem we threw at it far better than we had any right to expect.

    A 3 day outage is never a product bug. Its a failure to plan for DR and many other things.
