Not to be negative, but that seems super huge for its worth. How can you even recoup that with barely anyone paying? Founders trying to exit is comprehensible, but how can VCs sign this deal?
- rozap 1y agoI don't really understand supabase. Everyone talks about how great it is, but it's just slow expensive postgres? I must be missing something.
- nikanj 1y agoIt's slow expensive postgres _with_AI_
- ChadNauseam 1y agoIt has a nice web interface, comes with support for auth (which almost all apps need), and has a couple other nice things like storage buckets and serverless functions. When doing a hobby project, I don't want to rent a server from hetzner, set up SSH, connect, figure out how to install postgres, make sure everything is configured and so on. It's much nicer to click one button in the supabase UI and have everything I need
- nmfisher 1y agoI'm a happy Supabase customer. It's not just postgres, it's postgres + auth + functions + storage all in one place, with a very good local Docker environment and a variety of nice client SDKs. It's a quick/convenient way to get a "full" backend up and running. The other option (Firebase) can't be self-hosted and has some absurd pricing footguns.
