Nhost is an open source Firebase rival backed by GitHub's founders
- phendrenad2 5y agoThey need a cool name like Firebase.
- elitan 5y agoFirebase sure is a cool name. Any suggestions for a new name? I'm thinking: mybase.so with the slogan: mybase.so good! :D
- nhostthrow 5y agoAlways happy to see some new open source alternatives. I've been running a very small hosting company trading as nHost for about 7 years. I don't own any trademarks. Am I at risk of potentially losing the ability to operate under this name? Is my domain name at risk?
- elitan 5y agoI would not worry about it :) Is it HOSTIKO? Or something else?
- nhostthrow 5y agoNo, it's a home-grown stack that I manage with Ansible. I operate on word of mouth and haven't really put any effort into SEO or building an online presence because it's a side-project and I want to be selective about my customers (I have no desire to compete with companies like HostGator on price). I own a couple of nHost domains in my local gTLD. Fun fact: I looked into buying nhost.io several years back but I decided it was too expensive at the time! Best of luck with your project :)
- masonhipp 5y agoI’ve been using Nhost for the past year and both the software and founders have been really great. There’s a vibrant discord community, an active group of contributors, and it all makes for a very productive stack. Highly recommended!
