I am working on a new(again) project. I too will take the path of a monolith but later on i plan to add separate servers to handle chat, video(hosting and streaming), file hosting(ala cdn) and mailing(yes, i will write my own mailer). I write in Go, use protocol buffers to define the api but will handle it via http(manual routing, not grpc gateway), event sourcing for the domain entities, db will by good old mariadb(i never found postgres interesting with its "exotic" types and lack of ui tools), front-end will be written in quasar which i will also use for mobile app(my first). a lot of things can be done very easily and cheaply if one has the skill and time.
