   Appreciate the sentiment. Give us a try when you get a chance!

   Thanks for sharing. Yeah, that’s a very reasonable use case to switch over. We have lots of logrocket and busgnag converts. We do have more SDKs in the works, and occasionally, community members help us out as well (see the comment about ou

   I understand the sentiment. Maybe we can put something in our self hosting docs [1] that is more clear about how we think about our open source stance. In short, self hosting highlight is free on a single instance, but we charge for an “en

   We do consider sentry a competitor. There's a small bug on our site where our competitor page isn't rendering (taking a look). There's a few reasons why someone would use us over Sentry. First is that our session replay produ

   This is one of the reasons we’re considering moving off opensearch.

    Oh very interesting. I don't think we're going to build something for that use case specifically. But long term, we do plan to build a metrics product, which you could use to analyze these patterns. It's interesting to hear w

    Very cool. My mistake for overlooking that. Victoria metrics seems more like a metrics store? Something comparable to influx? Is that right?

    Makes sense. We're going to do #1 for sure. #2 is more difficult because we have to be cognizant of or internal costs. But will share with the team nonetheless. Thank you.

    Sounds good, will update copy accordingly. Thanks for the feedback.

    By default, our hobby deployment reads from a local copy of clickhouse. If you want to point it to a cloud-hosted version, it would be pretty easy to adjust environment variables accordingly. https://www.highlight.io/docs&#x

    Whoa. Didn't know folks did that. I always thought of metabase as BI tool, but the table UI is quite nice.

    That's good feedback. Thanks. What would you prefer we write? Just mentioned "Web" somewhere in the headline?

    Clickhouse's data and control plane are well defined, so many folks end up using S3 (or something like it) as a backing store. From what we've heard, this is what clickhouse cloud does behind the scenes: https://clickho

    fwiw, we don't really see a need for more than a handful of containers, even long term. we want to make it easy to self-host Highlight. nonetheless, sentry is a reputable project. they deserve the success they've had so far.

    Just added an issue: https://github.com/highlight/highlight/issues/5082 We don't have pointed plans for supporting Elixir, but hopefully this opens the floor for anyone interested.

    Why isn't it logging? You can send us raw logs if you like as well: https://www.highlight.io/docs/getting-started/backend-loggin...

    That's good feedback. We'll update the pricing page accordingly when the time comes. Question: do you worry about usage based billing with respect to surprise charges? Or do you expect a way to limit this?

    In isolation (just our logging product), Loki is comparable. It would be interesting to do a benchmark on Loki and see what a comparison looks like. Beyond logging, we do session replay and error monitoring and tie all of these things toget
