Interesting tidbit regarding LiteFS/Litestream:

> But the market has spoken! Users prefer Litestream. And honestly, we get it: Litestream is easier to run and to reason about. So we’ve shifted our focus back to it.

That makes sense to me. LiteFS used FUSE, which meant figuring out how to run and mount a custom filesystem. Litestream is a single compiled Go binary that you point at the SQLite database file (and accompanying WAL file).
