Also: please don't shill!

wallawe · 3 months ago

This is just silly, Don. HN has gotten so mired in negativity that someone who's a genuine fan of a product, and dares to go against the narrative is now a "shill." Also: see definition of shill. I'm just a happy user that runs a startup, and my life is easier because of their existence.

"Monopolies aren't so bad, the company is treating me quite well" is not a good counter argument.

do you consider Vercel a monopoly?

> "we could hire a team of devs for what we pay vercel"

It will be evenn worse when they see they need one, two, three more engineers to deal with the Next.js mess they created.

wallawe · 3 months ago

I've been using Next.js since 2017 (before dynamic routes were even a thing!).

The app router kinda sucks so we're staying with /pages. No complaints thus far with a team of 6 engineers.

I've been using Vercel for > 5 years. Suppose it's possible but that's true for any platform.

We've raised $4.6M to date to help home service businesses (think HVAC, plumbing, landscaping, roofing) with their digital marketing, building everything with an AI-first mindset.

We are a small team still (16 total in the company).

I'm the founder/CEO and have 13 years experience as an SWE so we very much take an engineering-first approach. If you're interested and your Github profile goes back to at least 2019, email me directly - will[@]rebolthq.com

height isn't fungible

even if acquiring wealth is random, retaining wealth means choosing not to see and positively act on the state of the world

> retaining wealth means choosing not to see and positively act on the state of the world

This is just silly. Just because you retain wealth doesn't mean you aren't positively acting to improve the current state of the world.

Been using it for my personal website for over a year as a self-hosted solution. Not great if you want just to set it up and forget about it. There are breaking changes every now and then on every part, DB and the FE. So at some point it just broke for me and stopped showing relevant data. I ended up switching to piratepx as it was enough for me to see if there were any visits.

wallawe · 10 months ago

Can vouch for this as well. The API has breaking changes all the time and there's no notice whatsoever. We'll transition away soon.
