Out of interest, what's the eventual revenue model here? Middleman matchmaking services face some clear challenges to recurring revenue. Homejoy, for instance, still shut down even after showing impressive user acquisition numbers beca

Nice. Looks like a competitor to Retool: https://tryretool.com/ . (or perhaps the other way around, since Bubble predates Retool)

Heap’s usage of Citus predates the rollout of Citus Cloud so definitely hats off to them for their operational know-how. I wonder if they’ve considered switching — my guess is that the compressed filesystem probably results in material savi
