Serious question- what do you use instead? Memcached is rock solid but has only like 5% of Redis’ feature set.

I think most people switched to Valkey which is a Redis fork:

Thanks for the info!!

I switched to keydb years ago, also a redis fork.

I don't use Redis or any alternative to be honest.

If I were pressed to choose; I'd honestly consider choosing Redis as the new AGPL-3.0 license is actually impossible to revert if development continues.

It's the usual combination of AGPL + CLA, they're allowed to relicense to any license of their choice at any moment. They've had the CLA in place since the previous SSPL license and the more-previous BSD license naturally allows that kind of stuff.

Valkey is already better
