After all this drama, it feels like WordPress has reached its peak and is now starting its decline. Of course, it will take years, and the process may be volatile, but the overall trend will likely be downward.

I don't understand why google play really bad about developer relations. indie developers can't memorize everything in 100s pages of policies/rules etc. it's not hard to warn "don't do this" and ban accounts forever if repeatedly doing same thing.
you are already using AI for banning accounts, so it shouldn't cause any more resource, just small adjustments.
Except for things like student accounts, which we're working on, I don't think hard limits are coming any time soon. Our expectation is that the enforcement of hard billing limits would mostly make customers furious with us. If you read to the end of the post, the direction we're going is preemptive detection of weird billing spikes, so you don't even have to notice and ask us.
If you're really only looking to spend $50, we should put our cards on table and say that we're generally not making product pricing decisions with you in mind. If your needs are pretty straightforward, there are hosting providers that will do a better job of serving that business than we will.
yeah I am pretty sure no cloud provider thinks people who can willing to spend small money. but guess what? if one of my projects start earning money, then I will continue to what I know best :) I think that's why every cloud provider still has configs for couple of $
the biggest reason of I am not using aws, google cloud, vercel etc... for my personal projects is surprise bills. I am not earning anything from them so I can only put $50 but can't afford $500 or $5000. so still i will feel much more secure if I can put hard limit and absolutely sure my bill will never go above $50. (or cloud billing insurance :))
but you got my attention, i can try fly.io

I really, really don't understand the hype around Arc. I tried it for a while and just wasn't at all impressed. I've heard, though, that a lot of people praise how it help them deal with hundreds of tabs, and I don't keep my tabs open, so maybe I'm the wrong audience?
(This is ignoring the fact that I tried it again a month ago and it wouldn't load a single page. I emailed their help and never heard from them, so I guess that's my last try for a while.)
I heard similar things from different people, so looks like it's not everyones taste. But you are right about arc's help is basically not working anymore.

Most browsers except Chrome have some sort of vertical tabs support.
- Safari (Mac) has a vertical tabs, but a very confusing UI, mixing Profiles, Windows and Tab Groups (only 1 level).
- Edge has Workspaces and Vertical Tabs, along with Groups (only 1 level).
- Chrome does not have vertical tabs and has 1 level groups
- Vivaldi has vertical tabs and groups, not sure how many levels of grouping.
- Firefox has Containers and Vertical Tabs (today), but for best results you still need something like Tab Stash, Sideberry or TST.
- Orion Browser (Mac) has the best UI imho and allows for grouping tabs at as many levels as you want, but you cannot have proper "folders", only nested tabs.
- Arc gets everything right, in my opinion, but I do not specially care much for the candy UI.
Actually somehow Safari has fastest load times, it just feel faster than anything. But man, I think it has ugliest UI :( I want to use Safari inside arc UI

I wish all browsers has first class vertical tabs support and split view. I am really tired of resource hog, unstable arc. Want to return back to traditional browsers but they are not supporting vertical tabs like arc did. And arc turn its face to AI instead of stability (I guess) because of investors.
So we are lonely in the dark :)

I have similar feelings about Arc becoming so tied with AI and that scraping data without showing websites is wrong for internet soul. Feels uncomfortable.
But, so sad that other browsers never put effort on making browser sidebar :( I first enjoyed it with Edge browser but then Arc came and sidebar is incredible. I can't switch to any other browser because of that, I hope they all implement similar (or better) sidebars.
But a lot of user (including me) use pb as database layer only, not as backend. I still write my backend on my project and pb is just like database as a service for me. And much happier than using it as only backend.
