Today I moved away from supabase for SubtitlesFast supabase -> SQLite I used supabase as an experiment last year. It was so easy to setup a db, few clicks barabim barabum and it's done always thought that setting up db instance on server was a pain, passwords, permissions, friction in general so supabase definitely reduced the friction but holy shit, i never realised how much latency it added to my product I moved to SQLite as per papa's @levelsio advice and my app is VISIBLY quicker on the frontend RankGoat is already on SQLite and it's a breeze also debugging with Claude is much easier now note to self: keep it simple stupid just remember to run regular backups to another server and you're golden the next experiment is to try Cloudflare for email I think and shed the Postmark bill, anyone done this yet?


My annual MRI scan gives me a USB stick with the data, but you need this commercial windows software to open it. Ran Claude on the stick and asked it to make me a html based viewer tool. This looks... way better.
