Thank you for the post. I currently use Akka 2.6 and plan on looking into Pekko at some point, along with alternatives. I was curious about your post and found this:
In general my recommendation would be this: If you do not have any effect types, just use Akka or Pekko. We are not trying to compete with those - they are both great implementations of the actor model. However, if you have effect types, you would benefit from using cats-actors because the developer experience (DX) is much better and there is no performance hit.
Cats effects were new to me. Do you have any good comparisons with Akka/Pekko?
