> Spring Boot is the boring and dependable choice, it does basically everything you might need and is not too hard to configure.

Not sure I agree here. One needs to know a good amount about how Spring works before they can start configuring Spring app. Methods annotated with @Bean would look strange to any newcomer, or how about trying to figure out how messaging libs set up works (let's say Kafka) would be very confusing.
