Reliability, it depends on your app and requirements. Been using them for about a year and it has been really solid, the few times I did have some issues the support was really quick and helpful. But I do see your point, it might not work for everyone.
- james-revisoai 3y agoSelf-hosting Supabase is pretty hard when you consider mail set up, and all the config like setting your own domain/secrets/config without the full dashboard Supabase managed service provides, doesn't it? Aka you can't just get-up-and-go fill in a nice UI/form on an EC2 instance AMI template for Supabase...
- codeptualize 3y agoI would assume so. Never tried it, and I hope I never have to, I use Supabase to have less work not more haha. I still find it important that the option exists if ever needed, and maybe even more important is the ability to move away from Supabase, which some people have done successfully (see for example https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36004925 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36004925) Other services like Firebase make that really complicated. I quite like that portability is one of their core principles. There are some guides and templates on self hosting https://supabase.com/docs/guides/self-hosting https://supabase.com/docs/guides/self-hosting but it's obviously a big complicated project with lots of features. It probably also requires a bunch of work to monitor, maintain and update it once you get it running.
