You start with good intentions, reading all the Medium articles about how microservices will solve all your problems and make you scalable like Netflix. Fast forward six months and you're debugging why Service A can't talk to Service B because Service C is down, which somehow broke Service D's authentication, and now you're maintaining 47 different repos with their own CI/CD pipelines. Meanwhile, your buddy's startup is running a "distributed tightly coupled monolith" - basically a monolith that they split across multiple servers for absolutely no reason except to put "microservices" on their resume. It's got all the complexity of microservices with none of the benefits. Beautiful disaster. The real kicker? Both architectures will work until they don't, and when they fail, you'll be the one on call at 2 AM trying to figure out which service decided to have an existential crisis.
