Wow really nice project! Do you work on this full time?
Thanks. I don't work on it full time, no. It's a side gig project I've been doing for a year and a half. I recently added paid plans to get a little side income, but it's not really taken off. Likely because the free tier is too generous hehe.
Fair enough! Do you cover your costs for it? I see you’ve got live stats - what’s your monitoring stack?
This is just really cool, I’d love to build an actually useful service like this and have it at least pay for itself but so many things are so daunting! (Payments, SRE, having a nice front end, …)
I do cover the costs yes, through donations and the paid plans.
It's definitely fun to do some things, but others are daunting indeed. I do, however, learn a lot. I have learned a lot that I was able to reuse elsewhere. All that is priceless.
