I really like the open source approach. I hope you guys don't limit necessary features like few of the other tools in this area to saas model.

Really neat to see elixir shining. :)

Feature request time:

Firebase don't really have rate limiting (unless you want to implement it with after and make a mess). That would be neat to have.

Analytics. Don't need anything too complex. I can't use analytics part of firebase because that's blocked by many browsers and increasing. Plus, I don't like sharing data with cough.




> rate limiting

This shouldn't be too hard. We use Kong which has rate-limiting plugins

> Analytics. Don't need anything too complex

I've never used Firebase's analytics, but it seems like we could do something fairly simple if there is enough demand for it. There are already some very feature-rich self-hosted tools in this space (like PostHog) though. Any reason why you wouldn't want to use those tools?

Thanks for mentioning PostHog. It looks promising and friendly: https://posthog.com

I use https://plausible.io (open source too).

As for the reason, maintenance and integration. I only need aggregated insight into traffic such as location (country/state), heat spots on the supabase parts (auth, database), referrers, etc. Most of what I need could be inferred from the logs.


Makes sense.

Steve (PostgREST maintainer, team member) is working on PostGIS support in PostgREST now. We hope to support maps/tiles etc very soon.

Plausible is very cool - another great elixir project
