Over the years I saw too many people complicate their architecture before there was a need a for it, so my current approach nowadays is generally "simplest thing that can possibly work". It's way easier to add more layers/tech later than to rip out something that was added at the very beginning of a project.

Yeah, I'm definitely guilty of over engineering in the early days but I think I developed an enzyme that reacts everytime it gets in contact with over engineered stuff sounding an alarm :D

But I still try to keep an eye on the "future direction"
