Clearly it does have something to do with fly.io considering fly is and has been pushing for litefs/stream as the ideal database solution for fly users. It seems reasonable that readers would compare it to other fly offerings.
- tptacek 1y agoWe have... never done that? Like ever? LiteFS is interesting for some read-heavy use cases, especially for people who are doing especially edge-deployed things, but most people who use databases here use Postgres. We actually had a managed LiteFS product --- LiteFS Cloud --- and we sunset it, like over a year ago. We have a large team working on Managed Postgres. We do not have a big SQLite team. People sometimes have a hard time with the idea that we write about things because they are interesting to us, and for no other reason. That's also 60-70% of why Ben does what he does on Litestream.
- sosodev 1y agoI’m sorry. I think that I, and probably others, have misinterpreted it. Between Ben’s writings on the fly blog and litefs cloud it seemed like that was the case. I didn’t realize it had been discontinued.
- tptacek 1y agoNeither LiteFS nor Litestream (obviously) have been discontinued. They're both open source projects, and were both carefully designed not to depend on Fly.io to work.
