Every author of the free software obviously has rights to full control of the scope of their project.

That being said, I regret that we have switched from good_job (https://github.com/bensheldon/good_job). The thing is - Basecamp is a MySQL shop and their policy is not to accept RDMS engine specific queries. You can see in their issues in Github that they try to stick "universal" SQL and are personally mostly concerned how it performs in MySQL(https://github.com/rails/solid_queue/issues/567#issuecomment... , https://github.com/rails/solid_queue/issues/508#issuecomment...). They also still have no support for batch jobs: https://github.com/rails/solid_queue/pull/142 .
