There's not very good visibility into open source usage so it's hard to say unless folks write blog posts about it. For example, I know Tailscale runs part of their infrastructure with SQLite & Litestream[1]. I wrote a database called BoltDB before and I have no idea how widespread it is exactly. It's used in a lot of open source projects like Consul & etcd but I don't know anything about non-public usage. [1]: https://tailscale.com/blog/database-for-2022/

For non-public usages, I remember Boltdb being named as one of the root causes that took down Roblox for three days! https://blog.roblox.com/2022/01/roblox-return-to-service-10-...

Yep! That's usually how I find out usage inside companies. :)
