So, has this been Jepsen-tested yet?

Because if it hasn't, it's likely there are problems lurking.

“Their tests showed that rqlite maintains linearizability of record insertion and modification, provided strong read consistency is enabled.”

The rqlite docs however tell you to never use Strong mode and that Linearizable is sufficient. https://rqlite.io/docs/api/read-consistency/#strong

This smells a lot like the situation MongoDB had in its early years that made it lose a lot of trust in the community.

Looking further into this: The Linearizable mode is newer than the test, so we don’t know if it would have passed.
