That's one way to look at it, but compared to any other way to run a server, it's objectively terrible. You can serve that many users with a $5 box.
- cpursley 2y agoSo put Supabase on a $5 box or build out your own replacement backend if your time is that cheap.
- k2xl 2y agoI think i mentioned this in my original reply- the app was already built and too integrated with supabase, it is hard to leave
- cpursley 2y agoIt's open source, self host it. Or find some paying customers.
- a-l-e-c 2y agoThat's quite challenging to do. I've myself spent quite a few hours looking into it and came to the conclusion that they make it their goal to complicate the self-hosting by lack of detailed docs. For example: I recall seeing a comment/warning in their docs similar to "for production, don't use this default setup" and it kinda felt more like "tough luck, figure it out or fork out $ome ca$h". Perfectly fine business model, but not 100% self-hostable on a production level (even for a very basic app)
