I think the audience for these projects are frontend developers who don't want/need to write much of a backend. They need some kind of data store + a dumb CRUD API to use with their mobile app or javascript SPA.
- lovasoa 2y agoBut aren't these folks already served well by PocketBase ? And by the time they get a million user, they will probably not be hosting on a single "tiny box" anyway. At what point do you think : okay, I need PocketBase, but ten times faster ?
- knowitnone 2y agoI don't question people's projects. Creator obviously thinks there was a need and that they could do better than PocketBase. It's the same as asking why BSD when we have Linux. Why Wayland when we have Xorg. Who knows, maybe this will succeed PocketBase. Since when has competition been a bad thing?
