@drq SO THERE IS ANOTHER THING AVAILABLE

I was talking about supabase.com/ and it is built around PostgreSQL.

@inex Yeah, I guess it is, but... it's heavy, has a lot of moving parts and is 7-odd containers strung together with Docker duct tape. I want something clean.

Pocketbase, on the other hand, is just one binary. Set it up, start it and forget it.

The only downside - it only works with sqlite, meaning if you want an HA failover - screw you then. Go try replicating sqlite with external tools, ya sorry loser.

Bummer.

@drq just a little follow-up as I started trying them out today

Supabase turned out to be not that friendly for self-hosting. Every installation is a single project — not good, why would I even bother if I just need a simple thing to create small projects with database and auth ready straight from the web UI.

So I found out about appwrite.io, which is easier to host, and supports both projects and organisations out of the box (supabase only supports a single admin user, bruh!). And it is nice. It also supports running "functions" written not only in JS, but also in Go, Dart, C++, Python, Java and others.
