If you're a single developer you shouldn't be using microservices, which is an easy way to solve the problem: microservices are only useful for large organizations.

What specifically is the problem you're trying to solve?

No specific problem, I just run into a lot of customers who are trying to solve the problem. I can parrot back everything from the books and the Netflix tech blog but I'm interested to hear what non-Netflix people are actually doing. Really more of just a learning question versus "I have an immediate problem to solve".

Microservices can be used to logically separate different parts of the program. It also means that the same service could be used for different projects. I don't see why a single developer shouldn't use them
