Is Clean Architecture actually good? What's your experience? (programming.dev)

Hi!

I've never read any of Uncle Bob's books. But I have taken interest in "Clean Architecture" as it seems like a good solution to make mid to large sized projects simple to understand and maintain.

I think MVC gets too much coupling and fails at larger projects, same with n-tier. But I'm not sure about anything right now (software design is a very complicated problem after all).

So I was wondering if you friends who have used Clean Architecture in production can share your knowledge and experience with me about this design?

Is it actually good and worth investing in?

Footnote:

I'm especially weighing this architecture because Uncle Bob's writings are really hit and miss. I don't see him as a master or guru so I take everything he says with a grain of salt.

I'm specifically talking about the "Clean Architecture" design as described by Robert Martin though.
