How has the experience building on top of FoundationDB?

I've always thought it deserved to be used more widely so intrigued to see it pop up here.

Engineer working on Deno KV here. Building on FDB is mostly a pleasant experience since it solves the hard part of the problem for us (concurrency control and persisting mutations).

We sometimes run into its limitations - the way we are using FDB is a bit beyond what it was originally designed for. But when it works, it works great.
