Interesting how they posted a self-host guide just a few hours before announcing this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FqiQKRKsfZE Perhaps expecting criticism and preemptively creating a response that shuts people down?
Ultimately I just see the same pattern in Supabase as in many of these "easy scaling" solutions: lock in. I think the future is something like those platforms are offering but we're definitely not there yet. Also it's not like I'm an old person refusing to accept new tech. I'm young and looking to create things but I recognize that these services are (currently) doing the complete opposite of giving me freedom.
