I really hope this is the end of complicated reactive frameworks! I love the old blocking spring controller paradigm, thread local and so on. It makes things much easier. Never liked webflux, so complicated and hard to debug. Simple things become a project!

Virtual threads to the rescue!

I could not agree more. And that's coming from someone that converted to almost completely async/reactive/flux-y code. Reactive frameworks, almost by necessity, force developers to write less maintainable and readable code (objective fact, not an opinion). Lightweight threading is a significantly better approach to the same problem space.

Got any links where I can read about it?
