 ## Which one to choose
 
 - **Keep MediatR** if your organization qualifies for the Community edition or is happy to pay for a license and support from its author.
 - **AnyMediator** if you want to leave MediatR without touching handlers: same type names and configuration API, all of MediatR's features including streams, processors and exception handlers, Apache-2.0 with no key. Migration is [a package, a namespace and the registration call](./migrating-from-mediatr).
+- **FreeMediator** for a close MediatR clone on .NET 10 when you do not need streams, processors or exception handlers.
 - **Mediator** if raw speed or Native AOT matters most, thanks to its source generator. Expect to adapt behaviors to `ValueTask` and its delegate types.
 - **Wolverine** if you also want messaging, queues and durable outboxes: it is a framework rather than a mediator library, with its own handler conventions.
 - **LiteBus** if you prefer separate command, query and event mediators and are on .NET 10.
-- **FreeMediator** for a close MediatR clone on .NET 10 when you do not need streams, processors or exception handlers.
 
 For speed numbers measured on the same machine, see [Performance](./performance): AnyMediator is on par with MediatR for `Send` and faster for `Publish`, while Mediator's source generator is an order of magnitude faster than both.
