1 micro-service per pizza sized team seems to work pretty well.

Put it into a monorepo so the other teams have visibility in what is going on and can create PRs if needed.

Uh? You eat less than a pizza per person?
To be fair pizzas are quite easy to scale from small kid sizes up to enough for several persons.

But it is a bit sad that the poster apparently never bought a pizza just for themselves.

It's a reference to Amazon's statement that teams should never grow larger than a team that you can feed with 2 (large) pizza's.

The optimum is probably closer to 1 than to 2.
