A Schema Registry isn’t just storage. It’s your event-driven architecture’s contract enforcer.
Configured for compatibility, it blocks breaking schema changes before they ever hit production.
➡️ No broken consumers
➡️ No downstream fire drills
➡️ Just enforced contracts

I moved my instance of Mastodon from storage on my NAS to storage on my Mac Studio. There was a post I did a few seconds ago which took 40 seconds to write to the database, apparently due to a blip in connectivity between the studio and the nas. It was running pretty good on the nas to be fair, but some things weren't as pin sharp and responsive as I might have liked. So I've switched over.
This wouldn't have been an issue had I chosen option B. So option A was extensive rewrites to the react frontend of my instance, which I ended up doing. Option B would be just creating my own Mastodon compatible server/service out of a svelte front end app and a number of Go microservices. While I reckon option B would have been way more performant than what I have right now, it's a lot of bits and pieces to rewrite. So in the end I went with option A.
