Json serialization question. I'm using firebase, and firebase has these things called httpscallables, which are essentially REST API calls, but theres no out of the box deserializer (<https://stackoverflow.com/questions/70448170/firebase-and-android-gethttpscallable-how-to-deserialize-json-into-object/70451194#70451194|although firebases firestore DOES deserialize things for you. it makes no sense.>) Everything is returned as a Map&lt;*, *&gt;, and you're left to wire it up yourself into an object, OR take the map, convert map to json, then deserialize from json string into my actual object.

I know I've read in the past that moshi optimizes for streams of data(? i think i read that somewhere) vs gson which optimizes for strings which is why sometimes benchmarks mislead with gson being faster. Since I need to do this weird dance of converting a map to json string first, then into an object. would gson actually be preferred in this case. or should i just stick with moshi (which i know fairly well) unless i hit a tangible perf issue with moshi?
