Tokio
4.9
(7)
"Tokio is a beast, there's no real reason not to go with it for production software."
"Tokio is definitely the default. It's easy to switch if needed."
"Tokio is used by AWS, Discord, Facebook, Dropbox, etc. Enough said."
"It's good enough for Cloudflare and Amazon. It's incredibly battle tested in real production at high scale."
"Tokio is widely used in production, has tons of support across the ecosystem, and great documentation."
"Tokio is battle-tested, supported by many libraries, the documentation is great, and it even runs on WebAssembly."
"Tokio + axum work really well together."

"Cloudflare is using tokio for their Oxy and Pingora, which I guess is the perfect example of production HTTP networking stuff you are about to build."

Smol

"I mildly prefer the way Smol does things, but there's no reason to switch."

"May is incredibly annoying to work with, not only you need to specify stack size and not to overshoot it."
