Wait, what? A database in 2025 doesn't support any kind of auth? A financial database? WTF? C'mon folks, the least you can do is put a guide for adding an auth proxy or auth layer on your site. Particularly since you don't use HTTP (cant easily tell from the docs, I'm assuming), then folks are going to be left wondering: "well how the hell do I add an auth proxy without HTTP" and just put it on the open internet...

Joran from TigerBeetle here! TigerBeetle is our open source contribution. We want to make a technical contribution to the world. And we have priorities on the list of things we want to support, and support properly, with high quality, in time. At the same time, it's important I think that we encourage ourselves and each other here, you and I, to show respect to projects that care about craftsmanship and doing things properly, so that we don't become entitled and take open source projects and maintainers in general for granted. Let's keep it positive!
