I fully agree, I love and dislike tokio equally much. It works great but because of that is used way too often as a golden hammer for every problem that involves async.
On another note, I found this: docs.rs/agnostic/lat...
agnostic - Rust
`agnostic` is an agnostic abstraction layer for any async runtime.

Been there, done that. Yeah, async does feel like an afterthought in Rust's design and the ecosystem is slow to change that. I hope that one day we will have a better solution.

Convenience is a hell of a drug. Making stuff async-framework agnostic is sadly pretty involved so I understand why people rarely do it. Luckily Rust has made forking and modifying code a blessing so far for me.
