Where would you prefer to deploy now?

Anybody passing by please share too

Zaheer · a month ago
We deploy currently on AWS so that's not changing. It's just the framework that needs to be changed :)

What did you end up doing? Are you still on nextjs? Big fan of levels.fyi btw. Thanks for your work
Zaheer · a month ago
Appreciate it! We're still on nextjs. Will def put a blogpost together as we optimize / move away. Thankfully, AI makes large-scale mostly repetitive migrations like these much simpler.

The biggest facepalm moment I had was when we switched Levels.fyi from gulp.js to next.js. Our pagespeed, hosting costs, etc all took a significant hit. We're experiencing the same issues as described in the post and weighing our options to transition as well. Avoid next.js / vercel at all costs.

I made the mistake of upgrading (13 Mini) and it is very clear that the new UI was not tested at all on smaller screens. The rounded buttons take up so much extra margin that actual usable space is greatly diminished.

Same. Terrible mistake. My mini overheats like crazy now.

Axios reported this claim and also reported there have been no verified examples of a phone receiving the broadcast as of an hour ago.

Israel often imposes internet blackouts in Gaza so it could also be likely that word just hasn’t made it out.
